These conflicts, which took place during the late medieval period, were marked by battles, political intrigue, and a fierce power struggle for control of the English throne. The name "Wars of the Roses" comes from the symbols associated with the two factions—red for Lancaster and white for York—although this emblematic connection was largely a later invention.
