Richard Neville
16th Earl of Warwick played a pivotal role in the Wars of the Roses, supporting both the House of York and the House of Lancaster at different times during the conflict. A skilled politician and military commander, he orchestrated the rise of Edward IV and later turned against him. Engaging in key battles, such as the Battle of Towton, Neville's strategic alliances and betrayals shaped the course of English history during the fifteenth century. His influence extended beyond military achievements, as he was instrumental in negotiating marriages that connected powerful families to solidify his political standing. The power struggles and shifting loyalties of this period culminated in his death at the Battle of Barnet in 1471, where his forces faced defeat against those loyal to Edward IV.
