Edward II (1284-1327) made Prince of Wales 1301 and King from 1307 to 1327. During his reign there was much dissension in the country and at court. He suffered defeat to the Scots at Bannockburn and after a generally unsuccessful reign he was forced to abdicate. He was then brutally mistreated and killed. He was born in Wales and died at Berkeley Castle.
