Henry VII needed to increase his power to secure his position as the first Tudor monarch after a tumultuous period of civil war known as the Wars of the Roses. His claim to the throne was tenuous, and strengthening his authority was essential to establish legitimacy and prevent challenges from rival factions. By consolidating power, he aimed to stabilize the kingdom, improve governance, and create a lasting dynasty. Additionally, increasing his power allowed him to implement policies that strengthened the economy and reduced the influence of the nobility.
