Second wife of Henry VIII:
Anne Boleyn (c1501-07 - 1536) had been unfortunate enough to not be able to provide Henry VIII with a male heir, and was executed on trumped up charges of adultery, incest, witchcraft - all treasonable offences. She was beheaded by an expert French swordsman, ordered by Henry as a more merciful death, on 19 May 1536. Ironically her triumph was that she was the mother of a great monarch, Elizabeth I.
Fifth wife of Henry VIII:
Catherine Howard (c1520 - 1542) was much younger than Henry VIII (1491 - 1547). She made the treasonable mistake of having an affair with a cousin of her mother's, Thomas Culpepper. When King Henry was given the details of her adultery, he is said to have cried, as he had always thought of Catherine as his "rose without a thorn". Catherine (a cousin of Anne Boleyn's) was beheaded on 13 February 1542, having asked for the block to be brought to her the night before, so that she could practice placing her head upon it.

What did Henry VIII use to kill people?
He used executioners with big axes to cut the heads off those who he deemed necessary to be killed.He killed many wives this way, the most historical was AnneBoleyn.Actually, Henry VIII only executed two of his six wives: Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard. Anne was executed with a single sword stroke, not an axe, by a French executioner brought to England especially for this purpose. Catherine was beheaded by axe. FYI, Anne may well have been innocent of the charges trumped up against her. Catherine was certainly guilty, but one should remember that she was only 18 years old and full of youthful foolishness. Henry was much older, obese, and probably physically disgusting to her.

well,apparently, henry the eighth was pretty nice before he was king. then, after he had been crowned for a while, he turned nasty. some say that the only reason henry cut off his second wife's head was because she had given him a daughter not a son, and that he had paid someone to give evidence that she had committed adultery against him. he cut off her head because he could, and that was the problem. he could do whatever he wanted, so he did.

Why was Henry VIII angry that the monasteries looked up to the Pope as their leader?
King Henry VIII of England had many problems, not the least of which was a genetic condition that made it a problem for him to have children. He desperately wanted an heir to rule England after him. King Henry thought that his wife, and later his wives, were the problem, so he wanted a new one. As he was in a valid marriage, he cut the Church in England loose from the Holy Father, and declared himself head of the Church. The monasteries tended to be filled with men who were trying to attain holiness and did not take to having a secular king claim for himself head of the Church.
