The Long and Winding Path of the Throne of England From Edgar the Peaceful to Henry VI

So a while back I was struggling to understand the 100 Years War. This was before I took a class on European history, so I was trying to learn by reading websites and articles and not books because I didn't quite care that much. Nothing was really making my life any easier and I love to see charts and diagrams that help me understand things. They're both pretty and easy to understand. So when I finally got the idea, I made this: a chart of the crown of England. This is the long and winding path it took to get to the Plantagenet all the way down to Henry VI in 1461. I admit, I used a lot of Wikipedia. So if anything is wrong, comment and I'll spend days trying to fix it (or hopefully only an hour but more likely days).
