In politics it saw Simon de Montforts challenge to the crown in Henry IIs reign and it witnessed the deposition of Edward I. In contrast, it also saw the highly successful rules of Edward I and his grandson, Edward III. Political institutions were transformed with the development of parliament andwar was a dominant theme: Wales was conquered and the Scottish Wars of Independence started in Edward Is reign, and under Edward III there were triumphs at Crécy and Poitiers. Outside of politics,English society was developing a structure, from the great magnates at the top to the peasantry at the bottom.
