King Henry IV of England
King Henry IV’s ascension to the throne was far from straightforward. He had to contend with opposition to the crown before ultimately seizing power by force. Just when his rule seemed secure, multiple uprisings and challenges from rival nobles threatened his position once more.
Following the suppression of these political disturbances, his health took a rapid downturn. Henry IV, characterized by his iconic mustache and sharp nose, faced a tumultuous reign in the 14th century, ultimately succumbing to illness.
