Decisive Events
Wat Tyler 's Rebellion
In 1381 under a remarkable leader the serfs nearly succeeded in obtaining personal freedom. They failed. but in the next hundred years serfdom in England faded away. and England won what it took the French another four centuries and a revolution to achieve. Here the rebellion is seen through the eyes of Richard II and his court.
