The Cousins’ War – Rules of Play says:

The Wars of the Roses were fought between the Houses of York and Lancaster for over three decades during the 15th century in England. The houses were both branches of the royal family, therefore the Wars were originally known as “The Cousins’ War”. Each player represents one of the houses as they fight battles and gain influence to control England. The Cousins’ War is played over a maximum of five rounds, with each round representing between five and ten years of the conflict. Each round involves gaining influence across England and preparing for a climactic battle. You win The Cousins’ War either by dominating all the regions of England or by controlling the most regions at the end of the fifth round.
