This play was originally known as The First Part of the Contention betwixt the Two Famous Houses of York and Lancaster and was the first half of a two-part play on the Wars of the Roses. The second part is what we now call King Henry VI, Part III. Together, they made Shakespeare's name in the 1590s.
