When Henry VIII became king in 1509, Thomas Wolsey's rapid rise began. He made a name for himself as an efficient administrator, both for the Crown and the church. Henry VIII began delegating more and more state business to him, including near-complete control of England's foreign policy. Wolsey's finest hour was when he arranged the Field of the Cloth of Gold, like a Tudor summit meeting, which he devised for Henry to meet the King of France.
