    Fun fact: anne of cleves wasnt even ugly.
    Henry was interested in french literature at the time, where the handsome prince dresses as a peasant and the princess still falls in love with him. He tried pulling this move, and anne being rightfully disturbed, pushed him away. His ego was so bruised he attempted to put the blame on her.
    Even then, henry admitted years later he should have married her.

    Fun Fact:
    Holbein was known for painting accurate portraits, so Anna's portrait would've been closer to what she actually looked like.
    Henry actually dressed up as a peasant, barged in on her, and kissed her.
    Anna, knowing nothing about Henry in the first place, was disgusted and confused.
    Henry, who didn't like how she reacted, came up with the excuse of "She's just ugly" and let her live a fabulous life.
    He actually wished he had kept his marriage with her later in life.

      The "she's ugly" excuse had to be Henry's fragile ego talking after she reacted that way. Based on the portraits, Anne of Cleves was the most attractive out of all his wives imo

    Fun fact: Henry and Anne of Cleves gave up the relationship and became friends, Anne became an honorary member of the king's family and was known as the King's beloved sister. So this means she wasn't rejected but the fact that both didn't see the spark in their relationship, but I loved the fact that they became friends after their relationship. And Henry sent her a letter ending in: "Your loving brother, and friend." once his marriage with Anne was annulled. Anne was also invited to the Hampton Court for Christmas and proudly danced with Henry's new wife Katherine Howard (LONG LIVE THE QUEEN)

    Rulers always seem to fall into three categories.

    Glory: They do some really good and promising things and then die before they can prop the country up to not fall into ruin without their support, and surely it almost always does

When she was in position, he secretly reached for it and shouted "Ho! Bring me my sword!" this caused her to turn her head in just the right direction so that it was a clean decapitation.

    Anne of Cleves actually got a pretty good deal out of it, much better than the rest of his wives. The marriage was never consummated and Henry paid a generous settlement/provided an estate for her so she wouldn’t have to return home in embarrassment. She and Henry actually managed to be good friends, she was referred to as the King’s Beloved Sister, and was considered an honorary member of the royal family. She actually lived long enough to see Mary, Henry’s oldest daughter and second in line, take the throne. Not bad, really.

    A child of 19, so alive
    She flirted with others, no way to behave
    The axe sent young Cath to her grave

At 27:31 I went out for a walk to think about my life and my choices in this beautiful world. While I was walking home listening to this, I decided to stop by the shop to get my wife her favourite flowers, tulips at 45:09. And finally at 58:42 I finally came back home, gave my wife the flowers that I got her and promised her that I will change things for the best. 2 years later I found this video in my recommended feed, I listened to the full video and it reminded me how simple things used to be.

    I can't believe England or the UK in general throughout its history after the Early Middle Ages has lost so many times the chance to have a 100% real King Arthur.

    Interesting thing to note, the reason the Scottish Stuarts took over after Elizabeth is because one of Henry's sisters married into the Scottish royal family, so the Tudor bloodline DID survive.
