War of the Roses

[AntiochusIII]

Could someone explain to me what this war was about? It was fought in the 1600's right? I dont know anything about warfare in the 1600's (except the style)

I'd save myself the time (and showing my own mediocre amateurism) with a Wiki.

It happens in the latter part of the 1400s, by the way, not the 1600s. That's a long way off, between the start of the Tudors (the end result of the war, so to speak), to its end.
