Historian's Introduction to Act I - Original Broadway Cast Recording: "Spamalot"

England.
932 AD.
A kingdom dived.
To the west the Angle Saxons.
To the east the French.
Above nothing but celts and some people from Scotland.
In gywneth, powys and difid.
Plauge.
In the kingdoms of Wessex Sussex Essex and Kent.
Plague.
In Mercia and the two anglers.
Plague with a 50% chance of pestilence and famine coming out of the north east at 12mph.
Legend.
Tells us of an extraordinarily leader.
Who rose from the chaos to unite a troubled kingdom.
A man with a vision who gathered knights together in a holy quest.
This man was Arthur.
King of the Britons.
For.
This.
Was.
England.
