Fall Asleep to the ENTIRE History of Stephen of England (Stephen of Blois)

King Stephen of England—Stephen of Blois—was the monarch whose turbulent reign plunged the kingdom into a bitter civil war known as The Anarchy. Claiming the throne in 1135 after the death of his uncle Henry I, Stephen’s rule was immediately challenged by Henry’s daughter, Empress Matilda. What followed was nearly two decades of shifting loyalties, castle sieges, and devastating conflict that left England fractured and exhausted. Though Stephen was charismatic and well-liked, his struggle to maintain authority amid rebellious barons and rival claimants defined his reign. In the end, a compromise secured peace by naming Matilda’s son, the future Henry II, as his heir. In this episode, we explore the chaos, challenges, and legacy of King Stephen—the embattled ruler at the center of England’s most chaotic civil war. #history #ancienthistory #historydocumentary #historyforsleep
