II. Edward was born in 1307. Edward became king of England in 1307. After Edward became king, he fired many of his father's assistants. Edward brought his friends to these positions.

But the people Edward brought were incompetent people and the people of England and the Lords did not like them. The British lords started an uprising against Edward. Edward did not suppress this rebellion and had to accept the demands of the Edward lords.

Meanwhile, the rebellion in Scotland continued to grow. Edward prepared the army and went to Scotland. But Edward got a big defeat in Scotland. After this war, Scotland declared its independence. As a result of this war, famine began in England.

France, which saw Britain as weak, opened a war to Britain. Edward sent his wife to France to make a deal with France. But Edward's wife betrayed Edward and started a war against Edward. At the same time, the whole British army betrayed Edward and left Edward.

Edward had to flee on these events. And Edward passed away in 1327.
