What was Catherine of Aragon's important role in defeating Scotland in Henry VIII's absence?
Most of the first half of the 16th Century saw a series of conflicts collectively called The Italian Wars. In 1513, as an outgrowth of the Italian Wars, Henry VIII of England invaded France. James IV of Scotland was allied with the French, so James felt obligated to invade England, which could have been disastrous since Henry the King was otherwise occupied.
But, when Henry left for France he appointed his wife and Queen, Catherine of Aragon, Regent of England. When Catherine was advised that the Scots were over the border, she without hesitation ordered an army north to counter the Scots. The Scots were soundly defeated at the Battle of Flodden Field and James IV was killed. Catherine sent to Henry in France a bloody coat reputed to have been James's. Catherine showed herself a convincing Queen and soldier, foreshadowing the soldierly bearing of Elizabeth I a generation later.
