The peace treaty that sent his twelve thousand men home - and cost his crown
This episode explores the life of Richard de la Pole, known as the White Rose, and his relentless pursuit of a throne he never reached. What did it cost him to carry the blood of kings in an age of ruthless dynastic struggle?
Person: Richard de la Pole
Period: 15th-16th Century
Claim: English Throne
Family: House of York
Event: Battle of Pavia
- Richard de la Pole, the youngest of seven sons, carried the Yorkist claim to the English throne through his mother, Elizabeth of York.
- The Tudor dynasty, which replaced the Yorkists, systematically removed rival bloodlines, often through quiet or public executions.
- Richard's eldest brother, John de la Pole, Earl of Lincoln, died at the Battle of Stoke Field in 1487 after backing a pretender.
- Another brother, Edmund de la Pole, was executed in 1513 by Henry VIII, precisely when Richard took up arms with France.
- In 1512, Louis XII of France openly recognized Richard's claim and gave him command of twelve thousand German mercenaries for an invasion of England.
