Editing Henry V of England (section)

=== Reputation ===
Henry V is remembered by both his countrymen and his foes as a capable military commander during the war against France and is one of the most renowned monarchs in English and British history. He is largely seen as a symbol of English military might and power, which inspired later [[Monarchy of the United Kingdom|kings and queens of England]]. His effect on [[English history]], [[English culture|culture]], and the military is profound. His victory at Agincourt significantly impacted the war against the French and led to the English capturing most of northern France. This led to the Treaty of Troyes in 1420, in which [[Charles VI of France]] appointed Henry his successor, although Henry died two months before Charles in October 1422. Henry's victories created a national sensation and caused a patriotic fervour among the [[English people]] that influenced both the medieval [[English army]] and the [[British army]] for centuries. His victories against the French during 1417–1422 led to many romanticized depictions of Henry V as a figure of [[British nationalism|nationalism]] and patriotism, both in literature and in the works of [[Shakespeare]], and in the film industry in modern times.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.history.com/topics/european-history/henry-v-england |title=Henry V |website=History.com |date=6 November 2019 |access-date=9 August 2023}}</ref>

Henry V is not only remembered for his military prowess but also for his architectural patronage. He commissioned the building of King's College Chapel and [[Eton College Chapel]], and although some of his building works were discontinued after his death, others were continued by his son and successor Henry VI. He also contributed to the founding of the monastery of the [[Syon Abbey]], completed by Henry VI during his lifetime. In the 16th century the monastery was demolished as a result of the growing movement of the [[English Reformation]] during the reign of King [[Henry VIII]]. Henry V further contributed to the church, as he was forced to put down an anti-church uprising in the form of the Lollard uprising led by the English [[Lollard]] leader [[John Oldcastle]] in 1414, who had been a friend of Henry V before his rebellion. Henry also faced a coup orchestrated by a relative and prominent noble, Edmund Mortimer, in the Southampton Plot, and in 1415 dealt with a Yorkist conspiracy to overthrow him. After this, during the remainder of his reign, Henry was able to rule without any opposition against him.
