The BRF began its reign in 1066 when William the Bastard, conquered Normandy & became William the Conqueror (William I). William started the amassment of wealth by acquiring land and ensuring his subjects (tenants) paid revenue, tolls (fines), and taxes.
For thirty eight years Henry VIII reigned and in spite of the monies and properties he claimed ownership of from the Catholic Church, the BRF and the Kingdom of England suffered financial woes (debt) due primarily to Henry’s extravagances and the wars they fought.
