Detailed explanation-1: -An army led by Henry Tudor, earl of Richmond, challenges Richard’s claim to the throne.
Detailed explanation-2: -In 1460 following almost a decade of political tension and occasional armed conflict, Richard Duke of York formally claimed the throne by right of his mother’s descent from Lionel Duke of Clarence. Parliament agreed that when Henry died, Richard Duke of York, or one of his sons, would become King.
Detailed explanation-3: -Richard III was the last English king to be killed in battle. Henry Tudor succeeded Richard as King Henry VII.
Detailed explanation-4: -On 22 August, 1485, at the Battle of Bosworth, Richard III led a mounted cavalry charge against Henry Tudor in an attempt to kill him and end the conflict. During the ensuing fighting Richard III was surrounded by Tudor’s supporters who cut him down.
Detailed explanation-5: -He convinces Anne over her husband’s dead body to marry him, showing to what extent he can prove his own power over her. We can see how language is used well to express fear and worry in other characters too. We can see another instance where Richard uses his skills of manipulation on himself, in Act 4, Scene 2.
