According to Brian Tompsett, UK genealogist: "Edward assumed effective
power in 1330 after imprisoning his mother and executing her lover Roger
de Mortimer who had murdered his father; thereafter his reign was
dominated by military adventures. His victory in Scotland, especially at
Haildon Hill 1333 encouraged him to plan (1363) the union of England and
Scotland. Through his mother he claimed the French throne thus starting
(1337) the Hundred years war. His son John of Gaunt dominated the
government during his last years. Died of a Stroke."

mother, he claimed the French throne in 1337 which led to the Hundred
