It was an XBOX game

It was a battle between Manors in England to win more land

It was a big fair where they did jousting

They were battles in other countries to capture more land for the king

They were battles to try and take control of the Holy Land in the Middle East from the Muslims

England was important

England was rich because he won lots of battles

He wanted to fight in the crusades like Richard

He wanted to rule the Church

He wanted to choose the new Archbishop of Canterbury

It was a tax that everyone had to pay so that he could build more churches and pay the priests more money

It was a blessing to say how pleased he was with the king and the people because they all went to Church each week

It was a rule that no church services, marriages or burials could be held in England because King John would not recognise the new Archbishop of Canterbury

Yes because he wanted to go to Church

Yes because he wanted to get married

Yes because no-one could be buried

No because he didn't care

No because he started his own Church

No, because he was collecting the taxes that would normally have gone to the Church

Because King John would not give in even after England was placed under an interdict

Because he was taking the Church money

Because he didn't like him

King John was afraid the Pope was encouraging someone to invade England and he was not ready to fight so he thought he had better make peace with the Pope by accepting the Archbishop he had chosen and promising to be loyal to the Pope.

King John's friends told him to make amends with the Pope because they were fed up of all the trouble caused by the interdict and the excommunication

It was a map of England created by the Church and given to King John when he and the pope made up

It was a great charter listing demands from the barons to King John because they were unhappy with high taxes and unfair treatment by the King

The Pope had him beheaded

He was killed in battle

He died of dysentry
