Game 4, Round 6 (History) -- Life After Henry

In each case, name the successor to Henry.

1. King Henry I of England died in 1135.  With no legitimate male heir,
   he had decreed that his daughter would inherit the throne, but most
   of England's barons disputed the accession of a female and backed
   Henry's nephew.  A civil war ensued, sometimes called the Anarchy;
   it ended with a compromise where the male became king but the throne
   would descend through his rival's line.  Name either of the rival
   heirs to Henry I: his daughter or his nephew.

	Matilda (or "Empress Maud")
	Stephen

2. King Henry II of England died in 1189.  One of his sons succeeded to
   the throne and ruled for 10 years, but spent only a few months of
   this in England since he was always going off on wars, such as the
   Third Crusade.  Name him.

	Richard I (or Richard the Lionheart)

3. King Henry III of England died in 1272.  He was succeeded by his son,
   who fought in the Eighth Crusade, conquered Wales, and waged war
   against Scotland, defeating the rebel William Wallace.  Name this king,
   who reigned until 1307.

	Edward I (or Edward Longshanks)

4. King Henry IV of England died in 1413.  He was succeeded by his son,
   who defeated the French at Agincourt and various other places.  As a
   result he was named heir to the French throne, although he died in
   1422 before he could inherit it.  Name him.

	Henry V

5. As we just said, King Henry V of England died in 1422.  His successor
   as King of England and France was his infant son.  During the resulting
   regency and the son's eventual ineffectual rule, Britain lost most
   of its territory in France, and then another civil war, later called
   the Wars of the Roses, was started by the House of York against this
   king of the House of Lancaster.  Name him.

	Henry VI

6. King Henry VI of England and his rival from the House of York, who
   was his third cousin, saw the throne go back and forth between them.
   The cousin took it for keeps when Henry VI was imprisoned and then
   murdered in 1471, and ruled until 1483.  Name him.

	Edward IV







7. King Henry VII of England died in 1509 and was succeeded by his son,
   who would also become King of Ireland, who fought against the
   French and the Scots, and whose turbulent private life would have
   world-changing consequences.  He ruled until 1547.  Name him.

	Henry VIII

8. King Henry VIII of England died in 1547, as you just heard.  He was
   succeeded by his 9-year-old son, who never took the throne in his
   own right since he himself died in 1553.  Name him.

	Edward VI

9. William Henry Harrison, nicknamed Old Tippecanoe after an old battle,
   gave a two-hour inaugural speech in terrible weather in 1841, promptly
   got sick, and became the first American president to die in office.
   He was succeeded by his vice-president, who had been mentioned alongside
   Tippecanoe in Harrison's campaign slogan.  Name this successor, who
   broke with the Whig Party and arranged for the annexation of Texas.

	John Tyler
	(the slogan was "Tippecanoe and Tyler too")

10. Henry Ford didn't die in 1918, but he did turn over the presidency
   of the Ford Motor Company to his son.  Name him.

	Edsel Ford
	(Henry Ford II was Edsel's son)
