Henry VIII 1509-1547
Tudors ruled England from 1485 until 1603 during the most exciting periods of English history. During these tumultuous times England experienced immense change caused by Renaissance and Reformation, involved itself in wars with the great powers of Europe and spawned some most fascinating monarchs, not to mention era brought us Henry VIII’s wives!
Our story begins with Henry VII winning the Battle of Bosworth, ending The Wars of the Roses and establishing his Tudor dynasty. From here the Tudor story will take us Henry VIII, his wives and his court, the lives of Tudor Queens; Mary I, Elizabeth I, Mary Queen of Scots and Lady Jane Grey and to such great events as defeat of Spanish Armada that would forever change the way England is viewed in world. No study of tudor era would completes without also exploring the lives of ordinary folk and how things changed for them when events like the Protestant Reformation swept through Europe.
