The war of the roses was fought between the ages of 1455 and 1485. It earned its name because the white rose was the badge of the Yorks and the red rose was the badge of the Lancastrians. The 30 year war went through political manipulation and a brief period of peace. After the war was fought a new royal dynasty emerged.
