Who deposed Edward V, Elizabeth's son?
Richard III
Richard Neville
Henry VII
Louis XI
Answer
Richard III, Edward IV's brother, usurped the throne after the death of Edward IV in 1483. Richard claimed that Edward IV's marriage to Elizabeth Woodville was invalid, making their children illegitimate. This paved the way for Richard to be crowned king, leading to the brief reign of the Princes in the Tower, Edward V and his younger brother Richard, who mysteriously disappeared while under Richard III's care.
