The symbol of the Yorkshire dynasty and later Yorkshire was a white rose.

On December 30, 1460, the Battle of Wakefield erupted during the British Rose War.

An important battle during the English Rose War, which took place at Wakefield, West Yorkshire, on December 30, 1460, was fought by both the Lancaster army of Henry VI and the army of Duke Richard of York, who took the throne. The Lancaster army or up to 18,000, while the York army numbered only 9,000. The Duke of York and his successors were killed in the battle, the York army died 700-2500, while the Lancaster army could only lose 200. The Lancaster army was laughed at the Lancaster army.

Although the Lancaster army killed the enemy's leader, the War of the Roses was not over, and the Duke of York's eldest son Edward inherited his father's garment, becoming the new leader of the York family.

The role is the most defeated of the Rose Wars York family, followed by Edward, toward a short victory.
