In the Ancients/Medieval period (up to 1400 AD), which century of British history interests you the most?

IGWARG1 Supporting Member of TMP Fezian26 Jan 2012 5:57 p.m. PST

14th century BC… Ancient Aliens century

Sundance26 Jan 2012 6:36 p.m. PST

I have a passing interest in the Roman era, though I also have some interest in the 100 Years War and the War of the Roses (though that is just outside of your limit).

dilettante Supporting Member of TMP26 Jan 2012 6:44 p.m. PST

Roman period, say 2nd or 3rd century

Dave Crowell26 Jan 2012 6:52 p.m. PST

Mythic Ireland Cuchulain and the Red Branch

Arthur to Alfred

1066 and all that

Do I really have to pick just one?

'Dicea isn't bad either. Come with me and you get to kill the Romans!

I have to pick one for ancients and one for medieval:

1st century BCE -- kicking Romans back into the ocean with chariots.

14th century CE -- Black Prince, Harry Hotspur, *swoon*

Tgunner26 Jan 2012 7:58 p.m. PST

400AD-900AD. Romans, Saxons, Britons, Picts, Irish, and lots of Vikings! Give me the Dark Ages man!

TKindred26 Jan 2012 9:50 p.m. PST

1st Century BC to 6th Century AD

Black Prince, Hank V, Crecy, Poitiers, Agincourt, et al.

Keraunos27 Jan 2012 12:14 a.m. PST

if you ask daily mail readers, whichever century, it will be the year '56 within it !

Swampster27 Jan 2012 2:55 a.m. PST

For the past few years, 13th AD

parrskool27 Jan 2012 3:16 a.m. PST

Wars of the Roses

MajorB27 Jan 2012 3:24 a.m. PST

Wars of the Roses

Exactly what I was going to say until I realised that the OP said "up to 1400 AD".

Sigh.

evicatos27 Jan 2012 4:49 a.m. PST

5th century proper dark ages

All of them grin

A period rather than a century … from the end of the Romans to the coming of the Normans. The age when England took shape.

I would say 10th century as England begins to solidify and the Vikings become more of a colonial than raiding power. Modern Scotland begins to form at the same time.

Lots of conflict with lots of diversity.

brevior est vita27 Jan 2012 4:00 p.m. PST

1st century BC.

Gennorm27 Jan 2012 4:46 p.m. PST

Crocus28 Jan 2012 11:37 a.m. PST

Dark Ages and Wars of the Roses. Briannia and Kingmaker!
