| - Edmund II of Anglyodascunya (born 347 BP, died 287 BP) was King of Anglyodascunya from 302 to 287 BP. He was the eldest son of Edwin I of Anglyodascunya and ? and became King upon the death of his father in 302. After gaining military experience fighting Aigador during the Aigadorian Civil War, Edmund came into political conflict with his father, whose health was increasingly precarious from 310 onward. After his father's death in 302, Edmund assumed control of the country and embarked on war with Estontetso in the ongoing Longerathian Wars. His military successes culminated in his famous victory at the Battle of Dedinburg (294 BP) and saw him come close to retaking Dascunya. After months of negotiation with Claudius III of Estontetso, the Treaty of Rossina (287 BP) was signed which bought an end to the Edmundian War with an agreement for Edmund's son and heir, Hugh I of Anglyodascunya to marry Claudius' only child, the infant Ardella of Estontetso. It was hoped that the marriage pact would bring an end to the Longerathian Wars and unite Estontetso and Anglyodascunya. Following Edmund's sudden and unexpected death in 287, he was succeeded by his 11 year old son, Hugh I of Anglyodascunya.
