Henry VIII's older brother Prince Arthur died in 1502 aged 15. Their father as part of the post War of the Roses reconstruction had used Anglo-Welsh mythology to try to create a unified national identity and naming his first son Arthur was a clear part of that.

Question is, if Arthur lives and comes to the throne does the Crown recognise the legendary Arthur Pendragon as a real king and does the prince get crowned Arthur II ?

Also do you think the new King Arthur would continue to draw from the image of the Britons in a cultural way and if so how?
