Editing Lords Appellant (section)

==Aftermath==
In 1389, Richard's uncle, [[John of Gaunt, 1st Duke of Lancaster|John of Gaunt]], returned from campaigning in [[Spain]]. His influence enabled Richard to slowly rebuild his power until 1397, when he reasserted his authority and destroyed the principal three among the Lords Appellant, Gloucester, Arundel and Warwick.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Burt |first1=Caroline |last2=Partington |first2=Richard |title=Arise England: Six kings and the making of the English state |date=2024 |publisher=Faber |location=London |isbn=978-0-571-31198-9 |page=567}}</ref> However, in 1399 Richard was deposed by Gaunt's son, [[Henry IV of England|Henry of Bolingbroke]], partly as a result of the royal confiscation of Gaunt's estate on his death. Bolingbroke succeeded him as Henry IV.

Richard never forgave the Lords Appellant. His uncle Gloucester was murdered in captivity in Calais; he was killed on Richard's orders.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Burt |first1=Caroline |last2=Partington |first2=Richard |title=Arise England: Six kings and the making of the English state |date=2024 |publisher=Faber |location=London |isbn=978-0-571-31198-9 |pages=569-571}}</ref> The Earl of Arundel was beheaded. Warwick lost his title and his lands and was imprisoned on the Isle of Man until Richard was overthrown by Henry Bolingbroke. The behaviour of the two junior Lords Appellant, Bolingbroke and Mowbray, probably influenced Richard's decision in 1398 to exile them both, and to revoke the permission he had given them to sue for any inheritance which fell due, as it did in relation to Mowbray's grandmother and, more significantly, of Bolingbroke's father, John of Gaunt.
