Hello to everybody!
I'm trying to know more about UK monarchy in the period pointed in the
subject: the first years of the 13th Century. If what I read was correct,
these years (from 1199 to 1216) were under the reign of John Lackland.
Well, I would know which was his coat of arms, because I found different
informations about it. It was this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Richard_I_of_England_Arms.svg
or this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:England_COA.svg
?
The latter was the official coat of arm of Plantagenet House, but John
Lackland seemed to use also the first one during a certan period. Is it
true or did King John always use the latter?
Then, are they leopards or lions?
I would find moreover some info about the organization of royal officers:
there was a hierarchy? What was their organization? What they did in the
England lands? Did they only obtain taxes or did they have other tasks?
I know I asked a lot of questions, but if you don't or if you can't
answer,
could you write some link were I can find what I'm looking for?
Sorry for my quitely bad English, I'm italian.
Thank you anyway,
Rock3
