The Battle of Methven
My Summery on Battle of Methven
It all started when Robert the Bruce and Comyn were fighting many times throughout the years. They ended up in a church while they were fighting and Bruce stabbed Comyn till death. This is what triggered the battle. Bruce wasn’t afraid to go to war because Edward the first was weak. Now the battle of Methven was between King Edward and Bruce to see who would be the king of Scotland. Eventually England (King Edward) won. This gave England control over Scotland.
