The King John School, often abbreviated to King John, is a secondary academy school with a sixth form in South Benfleet, Essex, England.
 It is named after the King John of England.
 The main school building was built prior to 1958: contrary to popular belief this building was never designed, nor used, as a hospital.
 As of January 2010, the school has an enrolment of 1861 students.
The Troublesome Reign of King John (c. 1589) is an Elizabethan history play, probably by George Peele, that is generally accepted by scholars as the source and model that William Shakespeare employed for his own "King John" (c. 1596).
George Peele (baptised 25 July 1556 – buried 9 November 1596) was an English translator, poet, and dramatist, who is most noted for his supposed but not universally accepted collaboration with William Shakespeare on the play "Titus Andronicus".
The Life of Edward II of England (German: "Leben Eduards des Zweiten von England" ), also known as "Edward II", is an adaptation by the German modernist playwright Bertolt Brecht of the 16th-century historical tragedy by Marlowe, "The Troublesome Reign and Lamentable Death of Edward the Second, King of England, with the Tragical Fall of Proud Mortimer" (c.1592).
 The play is set in England between 1307 and 1326.
 A prefatory note to the play reads:
Hugh de Neville (died 1234) was the Chief Forester under the kings Richard I, John and Henry III of England; he was the sheriff for a number of counties.
 Related to a number of other royal officials as well as a bishop, Neville was a member of Prince Richard's household.
 After Richard became king in 1189, Neville continued in his service and accompanied him on the Third Crusade.
 Neville remained in the royal service following Richard's death in 1199 and the accession of King John to the throne, becoming one of the new king's favourites and often gambling with him.
 He was named in "Magna Carta" as one of John's principal advisers, and considered by a medieval chronicler to be one of King John's "evil counsellors".
 He deserted John after the French invasion of England in 1216 but returned to pledge his loyalty to John's son Henry III after the latter's accession to the throne later that year.
 Neville's royal service continued until his death in 1234, though by then he was a less significant figure than he had been at the height of his powers.
D. Miguel da Silva (c. 1480 - 1556) was a Portuguese nobleman, the second son of Diogo da Silva, 1st Count of Portalegre and of his wife Maria de Ayala, a Castilian noblewomen.
 Educated at the University of Paris, he was appointed by King Manuel I of Portugal as ambassador to Rome in 1514.
 He served on that post during the reigns of popes Leo X, Adrian VI and Clement VII.
 Both pope Leo X and Clement VII wanted to make him Cardinal, but were opposed by the Portuguese Crown.
 He was recalled to Lisbon in 1525 where he served as member of the Royal Council.
 Clement VII made him Bishop of Viseu in 1526 and Pope Paul III finally elevated him to cardinal in 1539, albeit "in pectore".
 Falling out of favour with King John III of Portugal, D. Miguel da Silva run away to Rome in 1540, where he was warmly welcomed to the Curia by Paul III.
 His statute as a Cardinal was revealed in 1541 and John III of Portugal promptly condemned him of treason and revoked his Portuguese nationality.
 He served as papal legate to Venice, Ancona and Bologne and was made Bishop of Massa Marittima.
King John's Castle is the name of several large castles built in Ireland during the reign of King John of England (1166-1216), including:
King John's Palace is the remains of a former medieval royal residence in Clipstone, north-west Nottinghamshire.
 The name "King John's Palace" has been used since the 18th century; prior to that the site was known as the "King's Houses".
 It is not known how or when the building became associated with King John as he only spent a total of nine days here.
Edward II is a Renaissance or Early Modern period play written by Christopher Marlowe.
 It is one of the earliest English history plays.
 The full title of the first publication is The Troublesome Reign and Lamentable Death of Edward the Second, King of England, with the Tragical Fall of Proud Mortimer.
