The topic sentence is the main idea. It’s usually a broad idea. The Thesis Statement essay’s opening paragraph based on the topic sentence. It is clear and concise. It’s basically the same thing except the Topic Sentence is a broad idea, while the Thesis statement is a defined and defendable statement.
The thing which (at least in my mind) gives legitimacy to the Lancastrians is that Bolingbroke was the product of the union of the heiress to the duchy of Lancaster (who was sole heir to the vast and prestigious Lancastrian duchy) and was thus a descendent of Henry III’s *debated disabled first or more likely second born* Edmund Crouchback. This union with John of Gaunt united the two main branches of the Plantagenet dynasty. It was even suspected that since Edmund was disabled (scoliosis hence the name “crouchback”) he was passed over in the succession in favor of Edward I, the accession of Bolingbroke was a restoration of the main line of the Angevin dynasty post Henry III. That’s why I believe the Lancastrians have better claims to the throne of England. And with Henry V marriage to Katherine of Valois the throne of France was also tightly bound to the Lancastrians. The marriage of Edward of Westminster to Elizabeth of York would have made the blood of England’s monarch way more pure than the descendants of the Beauforts via descent from a female line. If Edward V of Westminster had taken the throne England would most likely have recovered France.

The issue is who would gain the most from the murder of the Princes in the Tower. Clearly the Tudor dynasty which had a very weak , illegitimate claim to the throne. A Stanley was in command of the Tower at the time of the disappearance of the Princes, was later on Margaret Beaufort's husband and deserted to Henry Tudor at a key moment during the battle of Bosworth. Ruchard III had little to gain by their murder given he left no progeny and at least one other nephew survived him.
Nope. Is o level. I have a WPLN cert above level 6. still can't get a job that accepts this WPLN. Does any company know that WPLN is equivalent to O level certified by MOE
I’ve never seen a worse historian reasoning! Margret Beaufort was pious? Something her son could ensure was chronicled? Wasn’t she Stanley’s wife? Didn’t Richard repeatedly spare her and that’s the reward he got from her? And this woman says she was pious? Lol what a joke!
