Henry VIII

Matilda was the daughter of King Henry I. When King Henry I died, Matilda was his only surviving heir (his other children had died earlier on). Matilda was supposed to be the Queen of England but refused to be crowned because she thought it would lower her dignity as all the previous Queens had only been named Queen because they were married to a king. She said that she was to be called 'the lady of the english'. Matilda ruled England for a few months until her cousin Stephen Blois took the throne from her and was named King Stephen of England.

Henry VII married Elizabeth of York, who was the daughter of Edward IV on 18th January, 1486.

Hope this helps! :)

Jane Seymour, King Henry VIII's third wife, gave birth to a son, Edward, on 12th October 1537. She died a few days later from complications of childbirth. The son later became King Edward VI.

An illegitimate son (or daughter) was known in less PC terms as a bastard; the human product of a union in which the parents were not married.

Henry VIII was 42 yr old when he got married to Anne of Cleves

No he adopted a german idea and made it his own so that he could get a divorce.

King Henry was married to Catherine of Aragon. He falls in love with Anne Boleyn and wants to marry her. He asks the pope to grant him a divorce, but the pope refuses because it was against the Catholic Church to get a divorce. After 7 years, Henry declares that the pope had no power over him and the pope excommunicates him. In 1534, Henry has parliament declare him the head of a new church, the Church of England, or the Anglican Church. This was a Protestant Church.

Henry VIII had one older brother name Arthur, who died while their father, Henry VII, was still alive. Arthur married Catherine of Aragon, who later married Henry VIII, after Arthur's death. Catherine and Henry were the parents of Queen Mary Tudor, also known as Bloody Mary because of her persecution of non-Catholics.

Henry's brother was killed so he married his widowed wife. She did not produce a son so he asked the Pope for a divorce. The Pope said no and so Henry made his own religion with no taxes.

Stalin had two wives. The first was Ketevan Svanidze, who died of tuberculosis on November 22, 1907. The second was Nadezhda Allilueva, who shot herself on November 7, 1932.

Prince Arthur, Henry VIII's older brother, died of unknown causes. Some say he died of tuberculous, some say he died of "the Sweating Sickness".

Elizabeth was the last of his children to rule England,they called it the Golden Age.

Henry iii was an alright king.. if i had to rate him out of 5, then i would say 3.

King Henry III made mistakes. For example, Henry needed advice and help on the best way to rule England. He could have either chosen to: Get his French friends and relatives to tell him what to do and not worry about the English barons. Or he could have listened to the English barons and let them advise him. He chose to get his advice from his French friends and in later years, he realised this was a big mistake.

None.

Anne Boleyn was tried, convicted and executed for Treason, Adultery and Incest - probably trumped up charges.

Catherine Howard was tried convicted and executed for Treason and Adultery, of which she was almost certainly guilty.

Over 60 drums, 78 recorders, 5 flutes and much, much more.

Answer Jane Seymour was the third of King Henry VIII's six wives. She was born around 1508 / 1509 and married King Henry on 30th May 1536. On 12th October 1537 she gave birth to a son, Edward who later became King Edward VI. She developed complications from the birth, probabaly a form of Scepticaemia, and died a few days later on 24th October 1537.

i think it was Catherine of Aragon.

the last 6 years of their marriage were spent debating over the annulment.

the were married for about 24 years

that might not be right but I'm pretty sure it is

:) lol :)

Henry VIII solved his financial problems when he broke with Rome.

This is because:

i) Lots of taxes were going to the Pope. If he did not have to pay the Pope then he would be able to keep lots of his money.

ii) On top of that, once he was split with the Church, his own 'Anglican Church of England' would obtain money donated by the people.

iii) Also, when he 'dissolved' the monasteries, he sold off their land and took valubles from them to sell, which would give him another income.

Because he didactuallyhelp England ...
Maybe not his wives.. But he did help the country..
He realized that the church were getting tons of money in ...(Keeping the money forthemselves(priest's).
So Henry turned toChristianity.
If itwasn'tfor him .. We would be or have to be catholic...

Yes, Henry VIII did raise taxes during his reign to fund his military campaigns and support his lavish court. He implemented various tax reforms, including the introduction of new taxes like the "Amicable Grant" and increased existing taxes on goods and property. These measures often faced resistance from the populace, leading to uprisings such as the Pilgrimage of Grace. Overall, his financial policies were a significant aspect of his rule, reflecting the demands of his ambitious agenda.

his 5th wifes name was Kathrine Howard he got married to her in 1540,and killed her in 1542

A Good question for Columbus Day! Catalina de Aragon was the daughter of Queen Isabella of Columbus fame. Catherine of Aragon was the first of Henry"s 6 wives. Hen ry raised a ruckus with the Ecclesiastical authorities demanding a divorce on the grounds she did not produce a male Heir. ( She did give birth to the future Queen Mary, nicknamed Bloody Mary. Look up the dates involved! Around l969-70 there was a sort of (accurate) Mini-series on the live and wives of the Tudor Monarch- and this was very well received on TV ( program was sponsored by Porsche-Audi-Volkswagen, then under one roof. For some odd reason Tudor England ( Henry VII -Elizabeth I) was a very popular slice of history in the late sixties and early seventies- some movies, the mini-series, and a full-blown article in the National Geographic on Elizabethan England, were, the err, Stock In Trade.
