King Henry VIII- Became King after the death of his older brother Arthur. He married Catherine of Aragon from Spain and they had Princess Mary Tudor, the first Tudor child. He was obsessed with the fact that he needed a Son for a heir and so he was forced to become Protestant through the Act of Supremacy (becoming head of the Catholic Church, remember he liked Catholic doctrine) to divorce Catherine and marry Anne Boleyn who promised him a son..Catherine died and Anne was executed because she gave him a daughter named Princess Elizabeth Tudor, the 2nd Tudor Child. He married Jane Seymour who died during childbirth and gave birth to Prince Edward VI, the final Tudor Child. He had a couple of more wives.

Prince Edward VI- Edward became king, but ruled for only 7 years..He was always a weak child and sometimes disappointed his father because Henry loved sports, Edward TRULY introduced the Anglican Protestant Church to England.

Princess Mary I- After Edward, Mary became Queen. Mary had a very difficult life as Henry exiled her mother Catherine to a nunnery with only 2 servants and barely any human needs. He forbidden Catherine and Mary to see each other and Catherine died of grief. Mary lost her title of Princess and became a lady-in-waiting to the young Elizabeth I. Mary was always told and raised with the Catholic Church and so Mary always carried her Rosary prayer beads and was firmly religious. When she became Queen she was super-catholic as she executed 500 protestants and tried her best to bring back Catholic doctrine to England. She died of old age and was known as Bloody Mary.

Princess Elizabeth I-After Mary, the last child Elizabeth succeeded to the throne with might. During her childhood years Elizabeth was a very brilliant child, she studied 5 languages, was active, and loved the arts. She was very clever with romances and she knew when to act in any situation. Elizabeth was Protestant and her sister Mary never liked her, as Elizabeth understood that Mary was forced to become a servant and serve her when she was an infant. Elizabeth never understood Mary's extreme devotion to the Catholic Church and was very opposite from her 1/2 sister. When Elizabeth came to the throne, England triumphed and was successful under her 40-year ruler-ship. She was a clever and wise Queen, however, she never married and so no Tudor heir was left behind. She announced her nephew King James I of Scotland as the next English King and she passed away...People call her the Virgin Queen as she was England's best Queen.

Let me make a few correction Queen Mary burnt 300 Protestants not 500, she died of cancer not old aged since she was 42, her sister adored her little sister when Elizabeth was little and Elizabeth ruled for 44-45 years not 40 years.
