Did Shakespeare write to please the British Monarchy?

Not really. He could not offend the monarch of course, and the king or queen might command a performance of a play. However, Shakespeare's bread and butter was the public who bought tickets to go to the theatre.

Those were the people he wrote to please.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
