Who were next in line after Edward the Confessor?
In the year 1066, there were four people who held, or claimed, the title "King of England." Edward the Confessor had been King since 8th June 1042, and he died on 5th January 1066. He was immediately succeeded by Harold Godwinson, a powerful nobleman from the House of Wessex. Harold claimed that Edward the Confessor had promised the Crown to him. William, Duke of Normandy, also claimed that Edward had promised the Crown to him - both claims may be true, it is possible that Edward had made the same promise to both men. In October 1066, William of Normandy invaded England and famously defeated and killed Harold Godwinson at the Battle of Hastings on 14th October 1066. He not only proclaimed himself King, but claimed ownership of all the land in England "by right of conquest." The Wittan, an early forerunner of Parliament, claimed that Edgar the Atheling, a grandson of an earlier English King, should inherit the Crown, but accepted William as King a few weeks after the Battle. William's coronation as King William I, took place on Christmas Day 1066.

Philip of valois and edward iii both claimed right to the spanish throne after the death of Philip iv's last son?
The conflict that arose between the English and the House of Valois resulted in what is known as the Hundred YearsÃ? War. The above statement is false, as this conflict revolved around the French throne and not the Spanish. EdwardÃ?s claim of inheriting it through his motherÃ?s bloodline was denied due to Salic Law and the throne was given to Charles, the Count of Valois.

Was Licinius related to Constantine the Great?
Both Licinius and Constantine held the title of Augustus in the Roman tetrarchy, and sought to become the sole emperor of the Roman empire. Although both were from the region of Dacia, it is unlikely that they were related. In order to boost his claim to the principate, Constantine claimed to be descended from Claudius II. For the same reason, Licinius claimed descent from Philip the Arab. Although both claims were spurious, they do show that the two claimants were not regarded as related.
