Henry VIII did what he did and all for nothing. His dynasty lasted no longer than his children. His glorious successor was not his son but the little red haired girl that he didn't want who was born on September 7 1533. She was one of England's greatest rulers that ever existed. This little red haired girl ruled with her head and not with her heart. She had the heart and stomach of king.
From what I read he was very fond of Elizabeth until her mother’s fall. Of course, right before that, he suffered a permanent brain injury in a fall during a tournament. He’s personality, never that great, changed dramatically after that.
@@dvkaw7780 he wanted a boy. He was trying to secure the succession. Look what happened back in 1135 when a woman tried to be queen in her own right. I mean look what happened during Henry's fathers lifetime. Remember the wars of the roses? Yes other countries had women rulers like isabella I of spain and margaret I of denmark. But these were different countries. Not England. He really wanted a son to continue the Tudor line through the male line. That was his focus. Yes both of his daughters were strong but he wanted a son to sit on the throne. He wanted Anne Boleyn to give him a son that is why he risked invasion and civil war. He broke with 1000 years of religious tradition for her and the hopeful son she would give him. Not for another girl.
There are a number of reasons for that, but you are right: One of them certainly was derived from her father's marriage, Anne Boelyn's beheading, and all the related stressful stuff that happened to Elizabeth in her formative years.
"as a man he was intelligent but vain, hotheaded but benevolent. As a husband he was generous and kind" Wow - what a joke!! This guy was an idiot who was ruled by his lust and insane need for a male heir. He treated Katherine of Aragon horribly, even though she helped him at every turn. He made sure that she didn't see her daughter for years before she died. He married a teenager, ruined her life and then had her beheaded - these are just a few of the horrible things he did. He was a tyrant who would turn on a dime and got rid of anyone who opposed him or disagreed with him. One of the worst rulers of England.
Not to mention that Katherine of Aragon won a war for Henry, whilst he was poncing about France. Henry destroyed the lives of 4 of his wives, Anne of Cleves and Catherine Parr survived but not without a few scars. The guy was a complete git.
At 20:30 it mentions that Thomas More was replaced as the Lord Chancellor. I don't know how that missed the edit room. It's Thomas Cromwell. Thomas More was long dead by that time.
@@Pixiestix4681 Thomas Wolsey dies on the way to his trial. Thomas Cromwell is replaced as Lord Chancellor. The next section after correctly discusses Thomas Cromwell who then brought about the fall of Anne Boleyn.
@Viscount3 when wolsey falls- Moore is appointed chancellor. Moore doesn't die until Anne is almost queen. Thomas Cromwell isn't replaced until Anne of Cleaves is divorced. Check your facts. It's wrong yes but you're still staying the wrong person.

Correction. The henry the great ship did not weight 1000 tons instead had a capacity of one thousand tons. One Ton means to hold 100 cubic feet water is equal to one ton.
I don’t understand why Henry was actually surprised when poor Jane Seymour died and I used the term loosely poured. She was cheating with Henry while he was still a married man to Ann did he really expect things to go his way all hunky-dory after he had an beheaded for doing nothing. She did not do those crimes and he knew it. There was no evidence at all. They never found any evidence of her adultbehavior

@@neptunedawn7121Mary did in fact marry to a prince of Spain, a close cousin, and had several phantom pregnancies or else miscarrys once and a phantom pregnancy that are documented. Elizabeth the first having watched what happened with her father, sister, and brother she refused to marry and decided that she would find a relative to rule after her which leads to James the first of England and third of Scotland. Henry tried to marry Mary off but couldn't find a good protestant prince. He was also severely worried about his own son and preparing him for kingship to worry too much about his two daughters that were pointless to the line of inheritance to the crown, or so he thought. Edward didn't make it a woman successor until he was dying and it wasn't his own sisters because neither swore allegiance to him.
This man is so similar to Donald Trump… I bet if he traced his ancestry, he’d find he’s related to Henry 8th. Same height, weight, stature, hair color, aggressive leader, temperamental, quick to fire people, and multiple marriages.
Overall, Henry VIII would have been England's most tyrannical king. His daughter, in my view, was the wisest and most sensible ruler of England in history. In this video we see a very self-centred tyrant who was interested only in his personal goals and objectives. Yet, if England had not had Henry as king, Elizabeth would never have been queen. "Swings and roundabouts".🎯.

Knocking each other off horses at full speed is completely bloody nuts ! Especially for a king . Poor horses . I feel for the animals they have no choice in what they do . Horses are meant to be wild and free .
If Henry were to be alive today, is there any more modern day/more current than his time (or present day) ruler(s) that you think is similar to him (or how he ruled)? Of course taking into account the modernization of things.
Henry did all that if u stoped being so blind in wanting a son his daughter Mary could have married young produced children if he didn’t kill his two wife’s Elizabeth probably wouldn’t have been scared to Marry mary Tudor could have even became queen and his dynasty could have continued but instead he wanted to do all that just to have a son that didn’t even last to adult age
You forget that up to his time there had not been a successful queen of england. Not one that did not bring war behind her. He was not alone in thinking that there had to be a man on the throne of england.
Those charges aginst ann were disgusting . And henry must have known they were all lies . Heknew she was way too smart to chance anything like adultery and incest was ridiculous !
H8 was the infertile one. Catherine should’ve just done the stable boy and saved all these women and herself from this nightmare. Although, it was pretty awesome how he ended up producing 2 female rulers with one outshining him x 1000.
Henry's dynasty did not end with Elizabeth but with his son Edward. No child born of Mary or Elizabeth could bear the Tudor name. Any child born of the sisters would bear the husband's name. I am amazed how people overlook that surnames in that time were patrilineal. Henry's first child Mary followed Edward on the throne. It was Mary who laid the foundations for much of what Elizabeth achieved.
I love the way they mention in history that he broke with the Catholic Church, but didn’t he do that so he could marry another woman while divorcing his first wife? He was a psychopath
Henry as king was supposedly the closest person on earth , to God. He was supposedly God's emissary on earth . But slashing and murdering his way to making himself so legally was against all of God's teachings ! There is son much going on here it's I possible to comment on it all . Why could Katherine not have granted the divorce . If she made it a condition that her daughter was next in line if there was no male heir then what was the problem. I think she played a very bad hand here . She could have saved so many from death. In fact who would care if her daughter didn't become queen . She would have been so much better without being queen .
There are debates on how Arthur died. I've only seen a few secondary sources that list local sweating sickness, but I don't see any primary sources. Anyone have info?
The earliest primary source comes from a larger document called: *_"The Receyt of the Ladie Kateryne."_* Which was written at least four months after the death of Arthur, and possibly written by John Writhe, Garter King of Arms. This account described Arthur's death as: *_".. .. the most pitiful disease and sickness that with so sore and great violence had battled and driven, in the singular parts of him inward, [so] that cruel and fervent enemy of nature, the deadly corruption, did utterly vanquish and overcome the pure and friendful blood, without all manner of physical help and remedy."_* Sweating sickness, was a disease of unknown cause that appeared in England (except in 1528-29) as an epidemic on five occasions-in 1485, 1508, 1517, 1528, and 1551. Prince Arthur died in 1502, a time when cases of this disease wasn't prevalent. Sweating sickness remains a mystery, as without DNA testing any hypothesis is just a theory. Contemporary scholars have suggested that the illness was caused by hantavirus infection. The primary source could be interpreted and also misinterpreted as many things: "Sore and great violence," could be painful convolutions. "In the singular parts of him inward, [so] that cruel and fervent," could be a singular internal constant agonizing pain. "Deadly corruption," could be the four humours, or principal fluids - black bile, yellow bile, phlegm, and blood. "Vanquish and overcome the pure and friendful blood," likely describes blood letting. "Without all manner of physical help and remedy," means just what it says. "The Receyt of the Ladie Kateryne" also states Kateryne & Arthur, both became inflicted with sickness at the same time. I don't know how her sickness was described, as it's behind a PayWall. But all later accounts should be viewed as dubious. My apologies for the long rant of poor grammar in regards to your question, but OCD & Time allowed / prevented me from simply answering it without explanation. Wiki, Google, or others, state the cause of death for Arthur from much later elaborated sources and provide little to no reference from which their information was obtained. HIGHLY suggest searching for the UA-cam channel: History Calling, and her video called: Tragic Death and burial of Prince Arthur Tudor | What killed Prince Arthur | Grave of Prince Arthur. She is outstanding at finding & reading primary sources and discusses simply without prejudice in a uniquely calming toned down Irish accent any relevant faults or doubts in primary & later sources.

Some seem to assume Henry was some sort of monster for his efforts to produce a male heir. I find that assessment rather dim. It was the king's primary duty because a male heir was the best means to secure the future peace of the realm. Ego and lust were no doubt a factor but nowhere near the priority.
He wouldnt have executed Catherine to marry Anne, Anne and Catherine Howard were executed because they cheated which is kinda hypocritical but that's the 16th century for ya. Doubt Anne cheated but Catherine Howard definitely did.
That’s how as an American how I feel when I hear an english person talk about American history especially the civil war, it sounds out of place and cringe, an American with a slight southern accent will do for me like a James Earl Jones or Morgan Freeman

CORRECTION - Henry executed 72,000 of his own subjects.
There are debates on how Arthur died. I've only seen a few secondary sources that list local sweating sickness, but I don't see any primary sources. Anyone have info?
Look at how Prince Edward died also Henry Fitzroy. As well as Henry Vll. Weak lungs. It's alluded that all of them died from TB.
The earliest primary source comes from a larger document called: *_"The Receyt of the Ladie Kateryne."_* Which was written at least four months after the death of Arthur, and possibly written by John Writhe, Garter King of Arms. This account described Arthur's death as: *_".. .. the most pitiful disease and sickness that with so sore and great violence had battled and driven, in the singular parts of him inward, [so] that cruel and fervent enemy of nature, the deadly corruption, did utterly vanquish and overcome the pure and friendful blood, without all manner of physical help and remedy."_*
Sweating sickness, was a disease of unknown cause that appeared in England (except in 1528-29) as an epidemic on five occasions-in 1485, 1508, 1517, 1528, and 1551. Prince Arthur died in 1502, a time when cases of this disease wasn't prevalent. Sweating sickness remains a mystery, as without DNA testing any hypothesis is just a theory. Contemporary scholars have suggested that the illness was caused by hantavirus infection.
The primary source could be interpreted and also misinterpreted as many things: "Sore and great violence," could be painful convolutions. "In the singular parts of him inward, [so] that cruel and fervent," could be a singular internal constant agonizing pain. "Deadly corruption," could be the four humours, or principal fluids - black bile, yellow bile, phlegm, and blood. "Vanquish and overcome the pure and friendful blood," likely describes blood letting. "Without all manner of physical help and remedy," means just what it says.
"The Receyt of the Ladie Kateryne" also states Kateryne & Arthur, both became inflicted with sickness at the same time. I don't know how her sickness was described, as it's behind a PayWall. But all later accounts should be viewed as dubious.
My apologies for the long rant of poor grammar in regards to your question, but OCD & Time allowed / prevented me from simply answering it without explanation. Wiki, Google, or others, state the cause of death for Arthur from much later elaborated sources and provide little to no reference from which their information was obtained.

Seems to me Henry’s whole rule was drivin by his ego and greed.
A murderous madman
Why do modern English historians all have fancy earrings and arm sleeves, a bit gawdy, no? Show some respect for the craft.
American documentary 😳
Him and his dad were false kings
They were bastards, every single one of them.
Royalty was built on the misery and misfortune of others, that's why they should not exist now.
My ancle from spain ❤,2 generación then him
Amazing
Very interesting 😏
So much wrong in this video..... Waste of my time.... The Historian who put this together needs to be sacked and not paid....
That's why I never drool over human babies !
From Ismael spain spaghetti kitten of elf fat kitten isma stepdad raised me up caribean Ismael spain guy
AI crap!
He was a strong leader .... today's politicians must learn from him...
He was a self-absorbed jerk. We have too many politicians who behave like him.
CTE
He was a womenizer
Its pronounced 'Tyooder', not 'Tooder'
Henry spent the vast fortune his father left him in little over 5 years.
Henry was really a good guy... women just don't get it with their toxic femininity.
I can't watch a Henry VIII documentary with an American narrator... Sorry.
lol ive felt like that hearing a brit tell american stories
I agree. It's just awful. The narrator ruined it. It's a shame, the documentary was good until he spoke.
Sanctimonious Brits. Ugh
That’s how as an American how I feel when I hear an english person talk about American history especially the civil war, it sounds out of place and cringe, an American with a slight southern accent will do for me like a James Earl Jones or Morgan Freeman
And how many Brits narrate docs about American historical figures?
