The Missing King

Edward V was king for just 78 days.

In his defense, he became king when he was only 12 years old. 

But his uncle saw opportunity and seized the throne. Edward and his younger brother were shipped off to the Tower of London.

And then? Nothing. The pair faded into history as the “Princes in the Tower,” and their fate remains a mystery.

A title doesn’t guarantee control. While Edward wore the crown in name, others had real power. 

Whatever your position, pay attention to who holds influence.
