Thank you, claire. This is new information for me. I hadn't heard of this treaty before nor that the marriage of Margaret tudor was part of it. I also hadn't realized that she and james had lost so many children. She is an interesting royal to me and I enjoy hearing about her 😊❤
Perpetual = 11 years in Tudor times, apparently they define words differently. Or could it be nether James or Henry intended to keep the treaty. On that note, are there any treaties from this era that are still in place? Thank you again for a fascinating story and sharing your knowledge
"in the presence of... Robert Blackadder". I wonder if he had a manservant named Baldric, who assured him he had a 'cunning plan'? On a serious note, I wonder if James IV breaking the treaty is what eventually led to, ironically, England and Scotland having the same ruler? If James IV had never died at the Battle of Flodden, his son wouldn't have become king until later (possibly much later). If this had happened, would James V ever have married Mary of Guise? In turn, would Mary Queen of Scots ever have been born? Even if she had, Lord Darnley might not have been, as he was the descendent of Margaret Tudor's second marriage after James IV died. So, if James IV had never died in battle after breaking the treaty, James VI and I might never have existed to unite the crowns of England and Scotland (though, of course, the Scottish line may still have been involved in succession, who's to say?).
Didn’t Katherine of Aragon play a key role in that battle? I have a feeling if Anne Boleyn ever did anything that brave you certainly wouldn’t leave her out.🧐
Erm, no, Catherine was well away from the battlefield and the credit has to go to the Earl of Surrey. But in my previous videos on the battle itself, I have always talked about Catherine's involvement as regent, including her wanting to send James's body to Henry. This video's focus wasn't that, though, it was the kings and the consequences. Perhaps you could have a browse around my channel.

She is an interesting lady. Linda Porter has a new book out on her.
Thank you so interesting ❤
I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Ha! I'm sure Baldric was there!
I do find it very interesting to look at the consequences of these things.
Margaret Tudor's descendants sit on the throne today.
