Henry VIII - English Monarchs Animated History Documentary
zhlédnutí 9KPřed 6 měsíci
Henry VIII is perhaps history’s most famous King, not just of England, but ever. He ruled from 1509 when he was 17 until his death at the age of 55 in 1547. Now what is it he’s famous for? A few things … Composing music. Marrying six wives, executing two of them. Oh yes, and basically initiating the Reformation, which completely changed England’s religion, turning it from from a Catholic kingdo...

Henry VII w as King of England for around 24 years, from 1485 to 1509. He’s the first of our Tudor kings, having overthrown his predecessor, the Yorkist Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth. The Tudor period lasted 118 years and is one of those eras that kind of bridges the gap between the long lasting Medieval period and modern times. Perhaps more famously Henry VII - or Henry Tudor - is also...

Richard III is perhaps one of the most controversial monarchs in the entire history of English kings and queens. Traditionally he’s been cast as a villain - after all, didn’t he steal the throne from a child - his older brother’s son - who he subsequently had killed or potentially eve murdered himself? But maybe things aren’t as simple as that - is it possible he was actually a good king who wa...

Edward V was King of England for 11 weeks, from the 9th April the 25th June 1483 when he was dethroned by his uncle Richard III. He’s the 13th Plantagenet King in our list. It’s not correct to describe his tenure as a reign because, in short, he never did, nor was he ever crowned. He’s famous for being the son of King Edward IV, for inheriting the crown when he was just 12 and for being one of ...

    "....longest serving monarch in history." That is Louis XIV of France - 72 years. He did have a head start beginning his reign when he was 5 years old.

    You should go back to school. Henry the forth was not a Plantagenet king, he was Lancastrian. He was the one who brought the Lancastrians into power. Then his son kicked the French and won the French crown, but he died young, leaving his infant son to be crowned. Who apparently took after his French Grandfather mentally. Thus the war of the Roses began. I'm a Yank, (American) and even I know this. But apparently you forgot to read that part of the British History.

    Richard II was in Ireland with his army when Bolingbroke returned from France. And with many of the Barons joining Bolingbroke they headed West to Meet Richard when he returned. There was no fighting, Richard knew he didn't have the army to face his cousin. He was arrested and taking to London and placed under guard in the Tower. He was then tried and found guilty and forced to give up the crown. His cousin then had him moved to another castle in the North. Where Richard died, either smothered or starved to death, no one knows.

    One of the many What Ifs I think about is what if Henry V had lived a long life. First thing I wonder is would France be part of the UK? And yeah, I wonder if Henry VI actually becomes a good king and not a disaster, and no Wars of the Roses, no Tudors, maybe no Stuarts, etc. That’s a parallel universe I’d love to check out.

    You forgot to mention that Mary II was Anne's sister and that the only reason James was replaced was because his second wife gave birth to a son who was raised Catholic, and England didn't want another Catholic on the throne so Parliament invited James's daughter and her husband to invade and take the throne away from James and his son. Its also the reason why William III and Mary II were the only joint monarchs in England's history.

    If The Pope would have realized the Henry's reason to divorce Katherine was legitimate (Henry was quite the biblical scholar and used the bible to prove it via Leviticus that "A brother should never marry his brother's widow or disaster shall befall him." Katherine was his elder brother's wife first.) Protestantism probably wouldn't be as large as it is today. Though the pope at the time was corrupt and was probably given bribes by the Hapsburg inbred Holy Roman Emperor to keep the marriage legitimate (as he was Katherine's nephew).

    Quite a fair appraisal of a king deemed “evil” in our history, so it’s rare, i think. He may well have killed his nephews, but he would also have needed to be one hell of.a warrior to have been a warlord…. Im going to jump back to the John episode…. Sure as sheep john killed young Arthur of Brittany… so not an uncommon thing… Richard aethling was killed by Godwin… and im pretty sure that henry first had a lot to do with that hunting accident in the woods, as well.
