  This is a chronology of royal profiles running from the Anglo Saxon kings to our current royal family and beyond. The evolution of the monarchy is followed through the royal houses from the Normal Kings to the current house of Windsor. The use of family trees linking one era to the next graphically describes the momentum that pushed the crown from monarch to monarch. By examining the key events and milestones during the reign of each king and queen, their wars and battles, triumphs and tragedies, the position of each monarch is clearly placed within its active social and cultural context.
