'''Henry V''', ([[August 9]] or [[September 16]], [[1387]] – [[August 31]], [[1422]]), [[Kingdom of England|King of England]] ([[1413]]-[[1422]]), son of [[Henry IV of England|Henry IV]] by [[Mary de Bohun]], was born at [[Monmouth, Wales]], in August or September [[1386]] or [[1387]]. At the time of his birth during the reign of [[Richard II of England|Richard II]] Henry was fairly far removed from the throne, preceded by the King and another preceding collateral line of [[Roger Mortimer, 4th Earl of March|heirs]], and the precise date and even year of his birth are not definitely recorded; the September 1387 date appears most commonly quoted. By the time Henry died, he had not only consolidated power as the King of England but had also effectively accomplished what generations of his ancestors had failed to achieve through [[Hundred Years' War|decades of war]]: unification of the crowns of England and France in a single person.
==Early accomplishments==
{{Babel-2|en|en-us-n}}
Upon the exile of Henry's [[Henry IV of England|father]] in [[1398]], [[Richard II of England|Richard II]] took the boy into his own charge and treated him kindly. In 1399 the [[House of Lancaster|Lancastrian]] revolution brought [[Henry IV of England|Bolingbroke]] to the throne and forced Henry into precocious prominence as heir to the Kingdom of England. He was created [[Duke of Lancaster]] on [[10 November]] [[1399]], the third person to hold the title that year.
==Articles I created==
From October [[1400]] the administration was conducted in his name; less than three years later Henry was in actual command of the English forces and fought against [[Harry Hotspur]] at [[Shrewsbury]]. It was there, in [[1403]], that the sixteen-year-old prince was almost killed by an arrow which became lodged in his face. An ordinary soldier would have been left to die from such a wound, but Henry had the benefit of the best possible care, and, over a period of several days after the incident, the royal physician crafted a special tool in order to extract the tip of the arrow without doing further damage. The operation was successful, and probably gave the prince permanent scars which would have served as a testimony to his experience in battle.

==Basics==
The Welsh revolt of [[Owain Glyndŵr]] absorbed Henry's energies until [[1408]]. Then, as a result of the King's ill-health, Henry began to take a wider share in politics. From January [[1410]], helped by his uncles [[Henry Cardinal Beaufort|Henry]] and [[Thomas Beaufort]] — legitimised sons of [[John of Gaunt]] — he had practical control of the government.
{|name="userboxes" id="userboxes" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-bottom: 0.5em; width: 242px; border: solid 0px; " align="top" colspan="3"
Both in foreign and domestic policy he differed from the King, who in November [[1411]] discharged the Prince from the council. The quarrel of father and son was political only, though it is probable that the Beauforts had discussed the abdication of Henry IV, and their opponents certainly endeavoured to defame the prince. It may be to that political enmity the tradition of Henry's riotous youth, immortalized by [[William Shakespeare|Shakespeare]], is partly due. Henry's record of involvement in war and politics, even in his youth, disproves this tradition. The most famous incident, his quarrel with the chief justice, has no contemporary authority and was first related by Sir [[Thomas Elyot]] in [[1531]].

==History==
The story of [[Falstaff]] originated partly in Henry's early friendship for Sir [[John Oldcastle]]. That friendship, and the prince's political opposition to [[Thomas Arundel]], [[Archbishop of Canterbury]], perhaps encouraged [[Lollardy|Lollard hopes]]. If so, their disappointment may account for the statements of ecclesiastical writers, like [[Thomas Walsingham]], that Henry on becoming king was changed suddenly into a new man.

Henry tackled all of the domestic policies together, and gradually built on them a wider policy. From the first he made it clear that he would rule England as the head of a united nation, and that past differences were to be forgotten. The late king [[Richard II of England]] was honourably reinterred; the young [[Edmund Mortimer, 5th Earl of March|Mortimer]] was taken into favour; the heirs of those who had suffered in the last reign were restored gradually to their titles and estates. With Oldcastle Henry used his personal influence in vain, and the gravest domestic danger was [[Lollard]] discontent. But the king's firmness nipped the movement in the bud (January [[1414]]), and made his own position as ruler secure. Save for the [[Southampton Plot]] in favour of Mortimer, involving [[Henry Scrope, 3rd Baron Scrope of Masham]] and [[Richard, Earl of Cambridge]] (grandfather of King [[Edward IV of England]]) in July [[1415]], the rest of his reign was free from serious trouble at home.

Henry could now turn his attention to foreign affairs. A writer of the next generation was the first to allege that Henry was encouraged by [[ecclesiastical]] statesmen to enter into the [[France|French]] war as a means of diverting attention from home troubles. This story seems to have no foundation. Old commercial disputes and the support which the French had lent to Owain Glyndŵr were used as an excuse for war, whilst the disordered state of France afforded no security for peace. The French king, [[Charles VI of France|Charles VI]], was prone to mental illness, and his eldest son an unpromising prospect.

Henry may have regarded the assertion of his own claims as part of his kingly duty, but in any case a permanent settlement of the national quarrel was essential to the success of his world policy.
=====[[1415]] campaign=====
With its brilliant conclusion at [[Battle of Agincourt|Agincourt]] ([[October 25]]), this was only the first step.
=====Diplomacy and command of the sea=====
The command of the sea was secured by driving the [[Genoa|Genoese]] allies of the French out of the [[English Channel|Channel]].([[Grace Dieu (ship)|His flagship, Grace Dieu]] – [[1420]])
A successful diplomacy detached the emperor [[Sigismund, Holy Roman Emperor|Sigismund]] from France, and by the [[Treaty of Canterbury]] paved the way to end the [[schism]] in the Church.
=====[[1417]] campaign=====
So, with these 2 allies gone, and after two years of patient preparation since [[Battle of Agincourt|Agincourt]], in [[1417]] the war was renewed on a larger scale. Lower [[Normandy]] was quickly conquered, [[Rouen]] cut off from [[Paris]] and besieged. The French were paralysed by the disputes of [[Burgundy|Burgundians]] and [[Armagnac (party)|Armagnacs]]. Henry skilfully played them off one against the other, without relaxing his warlike energy. In January [[1419]] Rouen fell. By August the English were outside the walls of [[Paris]]. The intrigues of the French parties culminated in the assassination of [[John of Burgundy]] by the [[dauphin]]'s partisans at [[Montereau]] ([[September 10]], [[1419]]). [[Philip the Good|Philip]], the new duke, and the French court threw themselves into Henry's arms. After six months' negotiation Henry was by the [[Treaty of Troyes|Treaty of]] [[Troyes]] recognized as heir and regent of France (see [[English Kings of France]]), and on [[June 2]], [[1420]] married Catherine, the king's daughter. Following his death, [[Catherine of Valois]] would secretly marry or have an affair with a Welsh courtier, [[Owen Tudor]], grandfather of King [[Henry VII of England]].
===Consolidated power===
Henry V was now at the height of his power. Having detached [[Sigismund, Holy Roman Emperor|Sigismund]] from France (and paved the way to ending the [[schism]] with the [[Treaty of Canterbury]]) he shared with him the credit of having ended the [[Western Schism|Great Schism]] by obtaining the election of [[Pope Martin V]]. All the states of [[Western Europe]] were being brought within the web of his diplomacy.
The headship of [[Christendom]] was in his grasp, and plans for a new [[Crusade]] began to take shape. He actually sent an envoy to collect information in the East; but his plans were cut short by death. A visit to England in [[1421]] was interrupted by the defeat of [[Thomas, Duke of Clarence|Clarence]] at [[Battle of Baugé|Baugé]]. The hardships of the longer winter siege of [[Meaux]] broke down his health, and he died of dysentery at [[Bois de Vincennes]] on [[August 31]], [[1422]]. Had he lived another two months, he would have been crowned King of France.
===Final words and legacy===
[[Image:Henry 5 arms.png|thumb|right|250px|Arms of Henry V]]
Henry's last words supposedly expressed a wish that he might live to rebuild the walls of [[Jerusalem]]. This ideal was founded consciously on the model of [[King Arthur]], a model which was becoming outdated. (It also referred back to [[Henry IV of England|his father's]] [[Henry IV of England#Final illness and death| death in Jerusalem]] - actually the Jerusalem Chamber in the home of the Abbot of Westminster). Yet Henry was not reactionary. His policy was:
*a firm central government supported by parliament;
*church reform on conservative lines (including church foundation innovating in the late [[Gothic architecture|Gothic ]] or [[Perpendicular Period|Perpendicular style]], as at [[Syon Abbey]] - a trend continued by his [[Henry VI of England#Death and legacy|son]]);
*commercial development;
*and the maintenance of national prestige.
His aims in some respects anticipated those of his [[Tudor dynasty|Tudor]] successors (as did his modelling himself on [[King Arthur]] - [[Henry VII of England|Henry VII]]'s eldest son was, of course, named [[Arthur, Prince of Wales|Arthur]]), but he would have accomplished them on medieval lines as a constitutional ruler. His success was due to the power of his personality. He could train able lieutenants, but at his death there was no one who could take his place as leader. War, diplomacy and civil administration were all dependent on his guidance.
The following is now regarded as a rather old-fashioned view of Henry's reign:-
:''"His dazzling achievements as a general have obscured his more sober qualities as a ruler, and even the sound strategy, with which he aimed to be master of the narrow seas. If he was not the founder of the English navy he was one of the first to realize its true importance (as witnessed by [[Grace Dieu (ship)|his flagship, Grace Dieu]] - [[1420]] - see also [[History of the Royal Navy]]). Henry had so high a sense of his own rights that he was merciless to disloyalty. But he was scrupulous of the rights of others, and it was his eager desire to further the cause of justice that impressed his French contemporaries. He has been charged with cruelty as a religious persecutor; but in fact he had as prince opposed the harsh policy of Archbishop [[Thomas Arundel]], and as king sanctioned a more moderate course. [[Lollard]] executions during his reign had more often a political than a religious reason. To be just with sternness was in his eyes a duty. So in his warfare, though he kept strict discipline and allowed no wanton violence, he treated severely all who had in his opinion transgressed. In his personal conduct he was chaste, temperate and sincerely pious. He delighted in sport and all manly exercises. At the same time he was cultured, with a taste for literature, art and music."'' {{citation required}}
Henry lies buried in [[Westminster Abbey]]. His tomb was stripped of its splendid adornment during the [[Reformation]]. The [[shield]], [[helmet]] and [[horse tack|saddle]], which formed part of the original funeral equipment, still hang above it. The head has now been replaced.
He was succeeded by his infant son, [[Henry VI of England|Henry VI]].
Almost two hundred years after death, Henry became the subject of a series of famous plays by [[William Shakespeare]]. First as heir to the throne Hal. See [[Henry IV, Part 1]],[[Henry IV, Part 2]].Then later as king. See [[Henry V (play)]],
