Richard III
Definition
(Noun) Evil 1483-1485 English king. Maybe better than his Shakespeare-and-since reputation, but that's not saying much. Widely thought to have had his two imprisoned young nephews murdered - one of whom had actually become King of England during his imprisonment: so that he, Richard III, could become king in his own right. Killed by the Tudors in battle.
