CRF takes place:1598 during Tudor Times and is a relatively late faire.
- GVRF is 1556
- Scarborough is the year 1533
- Vegas Faire seems to be 1542 - 1560 as the Queen is a portrayal of Mary I, I assume from meeting her court though her character showed more leanings to a Female James IV placing it 1603-1620.
- Bristol Faire is 1574
- Texas (TRF) uses the name King Henry, as CRF also does. As they claim the 16th Century this could be only 2: Henry VII of England r. (1485 - 1509) or Henry VIII of England r. (1509 - 1547)
The most common speech and garb for most faires falls within the Elizabethan era (1558-1603) and thus overlaps with the early years of our Age of Piracy (1560 - 1730). The Golden Age of Piracy is academically defined as 1650 to 1730 and encompassed much of our current portrayal of pirates.
