	Britannia: Monarchs of Britain
		Henry VII, son of Edmund Tudor and Margaret Beaufort, was born in 1457.
		Arthur died within months and Henry secured a papal dispensation for Catherine to marry Arthur's brother, the future Henry VIII ; this single event had the widest-ranging effect of all Henry's actions: Henry VIII's annulment from Catherine was the impetus for the separation of the Church of England from the body of Roman Catholicism.
		The marriage of Henry's daughter, Margaret, to James IV of Scotland would also have later repercussions, as the marriage connected the royal families of both England and Scotland, leading the Stuarts to the throne after the extinction of the Tudor dynasty.

	England Under The Tudors: King Henry VII of England (1457-1509) [Henry of Lancaster; Henry Tudor, Earl of Richmond]
		Henry gave Brittany defensive aid; but after the duchess Anne had married Charles VIII of France, he felt bound to fulfil his obligations to Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain, and also to the German king Maximilian, by an invasion of France in 1492.

		Henry VI wanted to wed her to his half-brother Edmund Tudor so, at the age of twelve, she was married again.
		Instead, Henry VI restored his old favorites to their former positions, notably the hated Somerset (who was the uncle of Edmund Tudor's wife.) The duke of York and his allies left London in apparent disgust.
		Henry was sending letters to England during the winter of 1484-5 to inspire potential supporters (since many were dissatisfied with Richard's rule, for reasons outlined in previous pages.) Richard was aware of these letters and ordered the mayors and sheriffs throughout England to arrest anyone receiving or distributing them.

		Henry consoled himself by waging war against France, courtesy of his father-in-law Ferdinand of Aragon, and Katharine's fierce piety led her to kneel for hours on cold stone floors in prayer.
		Henry's younger sister Mary, the most beautiful of the Tudor children, had been betrothed to Ferdinand's nephew, the duke of Burgundy, but now Henry made peace with France and promised Mary to Louis XII, three times her age and suffering from gout.

		Henry made no claim to a holy life, not like the churchman Wolsey; he also was shrewd enough to endow his monarchy with papal apparatus.

	the biography of Henry VIII Tudor - life story
		Henry was seen to be (in that era) vigorous and hansome.
		He executed anyone who disagreed with him (including two of his wives!) To some, Henry VIII was a strong and ruthless ruler, forcing through changes to the Church-State relationship which excluded the papacy and brought the clergy under control, thus strengthening the Crown's position and acquiring the monasteries' wealth.
		For all his concern over establishing his dynasty and the resulting religious upheaval, Henry's six marriages had produced one sickly son and an insecure succession with two princesses (Mary and Elizabeth) who at one stage had been declared illegitimate - none of whom were to have children.

	About Henry VII TUDOR (King of England)
		Born at Pembroke Castle, Wales, 28 Jan 1457, Henry Tudor was the son of Edmund Tudor and Margaret Beaufort.
		So the old theory that Henry VII was the first King to use "new men" in his government is not true, but it is true that he relied to a great extent on the abilities and intellect of such "new men" as Cardinal Morton and Bishop Fox of Winchester with much success.
		Arthur died within months and Henry secured a papal dispensation for Catalina to marry Arthur's brother, the future Henry VIII ; this single event had the widest-ranging effect of all Henry's actions: Henry VIII's annulment from Catalina was the impetus for the separation of the Church of England from the body of Roman Catholicism.

		Henry IV's descendants, the house of Lancaster, had been on the throne some half century before the weakness and bad government of his grandson Henry VI gave rise to a rival claim to the throne from another branch of the royal family, the House of York.
		Henry Tudor was born on 28th January 1457, almost two years after the outbreak of war.
