I've just started watching the White Queen, while I like it, I do have opinions on Edward and Warwick's relationship. Basically, I can understand Edward marrying Elizabeth over Brona and I support that. But I also see why Warwick is mad at everything that happens after. Warwick is essentially attempting to keep the kingdom together, and he has been the one behind treaties and securing Edward's place on the throne. He fought with Edward with this idea that the two would work together but when Edward himself started to favor the Rivers family more - I can see why Warwick would be upset. Mainly, what I am speaking about is refusing to have his daughters married to Richard and Goerge - that made no sense to me, and then making a treaty with the Burgandy rather than the French. I do understand loyalty to the Rivers, especially since they are the royal family. But while I get the main idea was for Warwick to be seen as a scheming villain which...don't get me wrong, he was nasty for how he treated Elizabeth and what he did to her father and brother...I also feel that at a point, before he became power hungry, he was more concerned with keeping treaties and alliances rather than power. It's like he did at the end of the day just want to strengthen the kingdom and I feel Edward didn't get that.

This isn't to excuse the villain he became and his clear hatred toward Elizabeth, or the fact that he's a shit dad. I don't fault Elizabeth for not trusting him especially since she so many times attempted to extend the olive branch, and I do find her to be the ultimate victim to Edward's stupidity and Warwick's grasp for power.

#quite an interesting event this #in all fairness I disagree with the author on this point #given how there was evidence of Warwick and Clarence's defiance #and their tendency to dissimulate #it should not come as a surprise that they did not hold fast to the commission's purpose #especially given how Warwick had earlier arraigned men following his brother's dismissal from the chancellorship #it is really no surprise that these men would later align with clarence and warwick #a lot of proxy wars were being fought via local conflicts #george of clarence #george duke of clarence #george plantagenet #george plantagenet duke of clarence #richard neville earl of warwick #lord warwick #warwick the kingmaker #quotes #bastard feudalism #gordon mckelvie

Others call Warwick “The Kingmaker,” because he is so ruthlessly effective in placing Edward on the throne and keeping him here, until Edward proves difficult to control and starts making his own decisions that are ‘irrational’ in Warwick’s mind. Instead of marrying the French…
