Monarchy

It boils down to her religious beliefs. Her father broke from the Catholic Church in order to divorce her mother, set her aside after years and years of marriage, and marry a low-born "slut." (Anne Boleyn. Who I feel has been misjudged by the world, but that's a different story). So when Mary became Queen, she married her cousin's son, Prince Philip II of Spain. Spain was a very Catholic country, and to prove her devotion to the cause, she persecuted her subjects who refused to convert back to Catholicism and tried them on the charge of Heresy, the punishment for which was death. To be fair, she did not cut their heads off. She had them burned at the stake. (much more dramatic, and a much more miserable way to die.) However, she was going through the law; it wasn't a personal vendetta, she truly thought these people were heretics whose souls were in peril. Also, she is not entirely to blame; her husband had a lot to do with the policy of burning Protestants at the stake. However, her successor and younger sister Queen Elizabeth handled the situation much more gracefully. Although England returned to protestantism under her reign, she did not go out of her way to persecute Catholics living in her country as long as they did not flaunt their religious beliefs.

treasonous (apex)

Queen Elizabeth is the second longest reigned monarch of British history?

I've heard a couple of stories about it. But in one of them i hear that you chant her name three times and flicker the lights at the same time. Then she/ll come out of the mirror and scratch you everywhere. but idk there's so many stories to the Bloody Mary.......

She also beheaded many protestants and set some on fire very slowly.

Some people liked him and some people didn't.

yess. the pigs took over and the world blew

Apart from being a totally hopless king in battles, he is most famous for his death. On the night of October 11, 1327 while lying in on a bed he was suddenly seized and a matress was placed on top of him and suffocated him, a plumber's iron, heated intensely hot, was introduced through a tube into his anus so that it burned the inner portions beyond the intestines. This description has been embellished even further and the instrument of death is often referred to as a "Red Hot Poker".

From 1727 until his death in 1760

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

autocracy, or monarchy

princess anne or also known as anne of great Britain the last of the Stuart house

Born into power, marries into power, takes power by force.

Absolutism:

power concentrated/consolidated to one monarch/ruler/person

Constitutionalism:

-rulers share power/authority with representative institutions

-a written constitution is not necessary

-harness popular support+use it to magnify state power

-recognize rights of individuals and representative institutions

-claimed limited powers

King Richard III of England ruled the country from June 26, 1483 until his death at the Battle of Bosworth Field on August 22, 1485, having been defeated by Henry Tudor, Second Earl of Richmond who would become Henry VII, the first monarch of the Tudor dynasty.

It hasn't ended. Queen Elizabeth II is the head of state.

There was, before "Great Britain" came into being in 1707, a short period of non-monarcy, known as the Commonwealth, the republican period of government in England between the execution of Charles I in 1649 and the Restoration of Charles II in 1660.

King George III ruled from 1760 until 1820; he was therefore the last king of Great Britain and, from 1 January 1801, the first king of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. The last king of Great Britain was King George VI who reigned from 11 December 1936 to 6 February 1952.

The current monarch is Queen Elizabeth II, who has reigned since George VI.

A absolute monarchy means the monarch acts as the sole power of authority for the state. In a constitutional monarchy, the monarch acts as head of state, but is bound by a set of rules or constitution which limit their power in some way.

Constitutional monarchies often have a parlimentary system, and sometimes (but not always) the monarch plays largely a ceremonial role. Constitutional monarchies have also co-existed in facist states.

Answer The Welshman Henry Tudwr gained the throne of England after defeating and killing Richard Plantagenet (Richard III) at the Battle of Bosworth. The English spelling of Tudor was adopted for the name of his family. The Tudor period in English History is named after the monarchs who belonged to the Royal House of Tudor - almost, but not quite the same as a surname as we would understand it today. The Tudor monarchs were: Henry VII Henry VIII, son of Henry VII Edward VI, son of Henry VIII Lady Jane Grey, grand daughter of Henry VII Mary I, daughter of Henry VIII Elizabeth I, daughter of Henry VIII.

A couple of mistakes Henry II made were:

1. He upset most barons when he asked French relatives and friends for assistance, instead of Englishmen.
2. He did whatever the Pope wanted i.e. he raised the taxes for the Church.

King John was the worst king England ever had

I don't know but check out www.ourworld.com for answers, we just finished learning that! (Saint Pauls Academy, Bellingham, Washington)

well, many people believe that he shot the teachers of school, but more recent studies show he killed everyone.

He made peace and stopped the Wars of the Roses. Throughout his reign, Henry VII only had to face one battle (The Battle Of Stoke). One problem he did face was that no one supported him. He in fact received rebellions from the Yorkists (him being a Lancastrian).
