O Lord, Our God, Arise
The Kings of England, 1419-1819
O Lord, our God, arise,
Scatter his enemies,
And make them fall.
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On Thee our hopes we fix.
God save the King!

any similarity between that list and the style used at the Regnal Chronologies [Note: Updated link] is because the latter has a very, very good style of displaying the information.
Also I can't really do anything about the random spaces.
This AAR is a continuation of my CK AAR on England. The gameplay portion proper should begin sometime in the first or second full week of June; between now and then I will put in a few essays on the very different England we will be working with (including some things not entirely mentioned in the original CK AAR). You should be able to read this AAR without reading the older one, but please don't, it's a fun read (in my very non-humble opinion ).
