Historian's Introduction To Act One-"spamalot"

HISTORIAN
England 932 A.D. A kingdom divided. To the West the Anglo-Saxons. to the East the French. Above nothing but Celts and some people from Scotland. In Gwynned, Powys, and Dyfed-Plague. In the kingdomes of Wessex, Sussex, Essex and Kent-Plague. In Mercia and the two Anglias-Plague. With a 50% chance of pestilence and famine coming out of the Northeast at twelve miles per hour. Legend tells us of an extraordinary leader, who arose 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!
