Who was King Henry VIII of England?

King Henry VIII of England was born on 28th June 1491, the son of King Henry VII and his wife, Elizabeth of York.

He became King when his father died on 21st April 1509, and reigned until his death on 28th January 1547.

He is probably best known, certainly outside of the UK, for having married six times.

The main reason for his multiple marriages was to try and have a son who would be an undisputed male heir to the throne, avoiding the possibility of a civil war after his death; his father had become King by his victory at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485, bringing to an end the long and bloody conflict known as The Wars of the Roses.

The ending of his first marriage by divorce was opposed by The Pope in Rome, and this led to Henry establishing The Church of England, with the English monarch as its head.

He is also known for the Dissolution of the Monasteries in England, an exercise in confiscation of land and buildings which left many thousands of clerics without their positions.

He conducted wars against France and Scotland, and was a claimant to the French Throne.

He was the second son of Henry VII, and as such was probably intended for a career in the Church. To this end he was highly educated in Latin, French, Spanish and Music. He became the heir to the English throne when his elder brother, Arthur, died aged 16.

Towards the end of his life he became vastly overweight, a result of an accident leaving him with a leg injury which prevented him from exercising.

He died at The Palace of Westminster in London on 28th January 1547, aged 55. Rumors that the cause of his death was syphilis only circulated a long time after his death and were probably untrue.

Henry VIII (28 June 1491 - 28 January 1547) was King of England and Wales also Lord of Ireland, later King of Ireland, from 21 April 1509 until his death.

What did Henry VIII do to Catherine?

Well, i am very intelligent with History NOT and I know alot about Henry VIII

Yes he did cheat on Catherine of Aragon, in fact he cheated on nearly all of his wives other than Anne Boleyn which caught him out. The truth was King Henry VIII was a homosexual. No joke, he gave Tomas Wolsey the job as Chancellor because he was also 'gay' and they soon started a secret relationship. Henry VIII still had many wives throughout this affair.

I hope this answer was helpful to you.

Who did Henry VIII love best?

There is no answer for this question so I will give you the key facts so you can make your own decision. Henry VIII`s first wife Cathrine of argon, marriage was arranged, after his brother Arthur died after marrying her. His second wife Anne Bolyne, though not pretty by the starders of the day, was flirty and it was said any man could fall for her. Her sister Mary Bolyne as a mistress to the king gave birth to a son, but as the boy was not birthed in marriage he had no claim to the thrown, so Ann the singal (and known as pure) one of the sisters, was thrown at the king and used her flirty self to attract the kings attention and saying she could give him a son. Something Cathrine had failed to do over her 1 child Mary later to become Queen Mary I and 8 failed miscarriages. Henry went through the courts and the pope blur blur blur but that's a diffrent story Im focusing on the relationship, but if Henry VIII is willing to go through all that does that mean he loved her or that he just really wanted a son, he was so conviced she would give him? Your answer like I said your oppion. Anyway Henry divorced Cathrine and married Ann. The public did not like this as Cathrine was loved by the people and now she had been replaced, they called Ann names from the streets of England such as Whore, Bitch, and most importantly Whitch saying she had pocessed the king to divorce his wife over a spell. Ann Bolyne gave birth to a healthy girl and named her Elizabeth after Henry`s mother the first words Henry said when he heard the news of a health baby GIRL was "well, if we can have a healthy girl, theirs no reason we cant have a healthy boy." Glaring at Ann. But they put a brave face on in front of the public. Ann suffered 2-4 misscarriages later in the marriage. Now at this point Ann is struggling, and Jane Symore (forgive the spelling) comes to court, she was small, shy, timid and pretty; the perfect Tudor wife, she caught the kings intention and he send her presents asking of she would be his misstress she very politly refused. Henry didnt give up though and started to spend time with her. They promised to be married but their was one problem Ann Bolyne HIS WIFE, he couldn't divorce her, that would lower the publics oppion on him further and the last thing he needs is a revolt. So he asks his courters to find out some info on Ann`s past, something that will get him out of this marriage a free man to marry Jane Symore. They do find some dirt about a relationship Ann had with Henry Persy before she was married to the king, they promised to be married but didnt get married because he went off to marry someone else. They found 7 people altogether including her BROTHER ewwww! to accusse of adulty against the king will in marriage. All of the accussed were torutured and said they had an afair with Ann (but lets face it under that amount of pain your going to say anything to make it stop. Just saying. Your Oppion) And then Ann was accussed of adultuary and in turn a tratior, and so was sentenced to death. Though something he did not do with his other wife, Henry let her chose how she could die and how it was done. She asked for a french beheading with the sword to make it quicker. Before she died she gave a letter to Henry stating "If I die a thousand deaths, I will always love you." She was excuted and Henry 2 weeks later married Jane Symore, she gave birth to the son Henry had always wanted, he discribed her as "An Angel" he never had a mistress will with her something he done for no other wife. However the celebrations didnt last long as 2 days after the birth Jane died of childbirth. The king was said to have been very depressed for weeks, saying that his son needed his mother, and he needed his wife. Ok im not going to go on about the other 3 because i need to sleep but at least you get the basic gist of the first 3 :):) x

Btw: sorry for the long information but I dig deep. And if you like all this Tudor stuff Go onto Youtube and look David Strakey "The Six Wifes of Henry VIII" it is brilliant all the information you will ever need. Seriously try it !!!!!

What was unlucky about King Henry?

King John was born in Oxford, in the year 1167 on the day of Christmas eve he was married to a woman named Matilda apparently she had a big mouth King John was the youngest son of Henry the second and its to be said that John was his favorite son Henry was married to Eleanor Aquitaine. King john was called john lack land for the reasons of Henry the second not having much land to pass down. King john had a brother who was called Richard, but known as Richard the lion hart sadly for john disasters seemed to fall again again and again.

To gain the throne and the crown King John murdered his nephew, Matilda started telling people witch cased John to lock her and her son up in Windsor castle and that lead them to starve to death. So then King John became king and when this happened Richard lion hart got banished when he returned in 1194 and soon after in 1199 he died as john be came king.

King John ruled England from 1199 to 1216. He quarreled with the Pope about how to run the Church. From 1208 till 1213, the Pope banned all church services in England and English people were worried that they would all go to hell! Some Church leaders blamed John for the trouble.

Also John went to war twice against the French king and then raised the taxes so they could pay for the wars and this upset the barons
