The Forgotten King of England—Louis VIII's Lost Reign

The Forgotten King of England—Louis VIII's Lost Reign In 1216, England had a king that history erased from the books. His name was Louis VIII of France, and for over a year, he ruled England from London, controlled half the kingdom, and received homage from English barons and even the King of Scotland. Yet if you look at the official list of English monarchs, he simply doesn't exist. This is the story of how a French prince invaded England, was proclaimed king with massive celebrations at St. Paul's Cathedral, controlled more territory than the actual English king, and came THIS close to permanently changing British history—only to be defeated by a 70-year-old knight in one of the greatest battles you've never heard of.
