Potter's Wax Museum- John I

(1167-1216)

Here we see John I of England. Considered one of the worst kings in English history, John the "lackland" held feuds with France, the Pope, and his own subjects. English Barons attempted to overthrow him, and after victory at Runnymede, made him sign the Magna Charta. He wasn't about to honor the agreement, and during a civil war, John died from Pneumonia.
