William Wallace Timeline - Kyle Rizk

King Edward was called on by the Scottish nobles after the reign and death of Margaret.

He was succeeded by his four year old niece

After this four year reign, Margaret died at the age of eight.

In 1296, Wallace gained a 50 member group of troops to fight by his side against the English due to the English killing his father. This gained him the status of a Scottish hero.

John was elected by King Edward and lost his throne four years later due to him trying to win back the Scottish independence.

King Edward sent 50 000 solders to invade Scotland. Edward's plan backfired. As Wallace and his men attacked unexpectedly.

This battle was lost by the Scottish (William Wallace and his men) due to one of the Scottish leaders not of support to Wallace and his troops.

Wallace organised to have a meeting with Robert the Bruce. This ended terribly, because William Wallace was charged with many crimes and was executioned.

Even though William Wallace was executioned by the English war still continued. Robert the Bruce was the hero as he defeated the English army. The location of this was at Bannockburn.
