Well of course Mary Tudor was a staunch Catholic queen as was her mother Catherine of Aragon. Mary saw that the rise of the Protestants had sent England into a civil uprising and at that time the only true universal and continuous institution was the Catholic Church. When Mary took power from her meager brother, she sought to bring England back to stability.
