War of the Roses - 1455

A noble’s life was dominated by warfare, politics, land, and family. Nobles served as intermediaries between the peasants and the royal family, providing protection and land to the former while offering military service and resources to the latter1. They lived in grand manors or castles, managing vast estates and overseeing agricultural production. Socially, they attended court, participated in tournaments, and engaged in the complex politics of the Wars of the Roses
