==== England ====
* [[October 13]] &ndash; King [[Henry III of England|Henry III]] calls for an army to be assembled at [[Portsmouth]] to be transported to [[Duchy of Normandy|Normandy]] to regain lost territories from the French. A large army of knights turns up ready to go but not enough ships have been provided. Henry blames [[Hubert de Burgh]] for the fiasco and in his rage will have killed him if [[Ranulf le Meschin, 3rd Earl of Chester|Ranulf of Chester]] has not intervened. This marks the beginning of the rift between Henry and Hubert de Burgh. Meanwhile, the expedition is postponed until mid-[[1230]].
