When did the Wars of the Roses start?

Correct Answer: 1455

The Wars of the Roses began in 1455 as a civil war to determine England's rightful king.

The conflict was fought between Lancaster (symbolised by a red rose) and York (symbolised by a white rose). The wars ended in 1485 when Henry VII of Lancaster won the Battle of Bosworth, founding the Tudor dynasty.
