Who was the greatest monarch of England?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNGz6LYY6_g

>This royal throne of kings, this scepter'd isle,
>This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,
>This other Eden, demi-paradise,
>This fortress built by Nature for herself
>Against infection and the hand of war,
>This happy breed of men, this little world,
>This precious stone set in the silver sea,
>Which serves it in the office of a wall,
>Or as a moat defensive to a house,
>Against the envy of less happier lands,
>This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England

-John of Gaunt, "Richard II"

It is true that Athelstan is also based.

Monarchs cannot, by definition, be great.
