- The Wars of the Roses brought great turbulence to England with the dynastic civil war between the House of York and the House of Lancaster causing chaos with the monarchy. The crown passed between the two houses a number of times, but following the Battle of Bosworth field, Henry Tudor's forces defeated Richard III. After Richard's bloody death, Henry was crowned King Henry VII by rights of conquest, and he married Elizabeth of York to unite the nation and to begin the Tudor dynasty. He needed to quickly restore order and stability especially with the monarchy, and he did this in a number of ways. Through taxes also, he managed to make the crown very wealthy, however this did make him at times unpopular with the people of England.
Henry VII would go on to have a very famous son who became England's most infamous and notorious King. His younger son became King Henry VIII who is most famous for having 6 wives and executing many high profile individuals including 2 of his own wives Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard. However Henry VII's eldest son Prince Arthur died, and the heir apparent's death caused great upset with the King. Following this, Elizabeth of York died shortly after and Henry VII was distraught. He went downhill quickly and later became morbidly ill with consumption, which today would be described as tuberculosis. His final moments were known to have been very religious and pious, with the King in a great degree of pain.

Always felt it was such a shame that we got two warrior kings from the house of York in Edward IV and Richard III, strong men who would stand and fight their own battles. Then to be followed by the Tudors who only saw battle whilst standing far behind the lines and sending men to fight and die for them instead of leading them their selves. Henry VII was a tight fisted guy, so much so that he made his son marry his dead brothers widow to keep Catherine of Aragon’s dowry and then Henry VIII who turned into a tyrant and again fought no battles but killed plenty. For all that is made of the Tudors they were lesser kings than their predecessors
@Spencer York agreed in turn, if it wasn’t for the decades of war and the subsequent weariness of it I doubt Henry VII would have kept his throne, Henry VIII would have slight more chance mainly thanks to his mother but neither were battle kings who would have roused men to fight for them and until Henry VII married Lizzy of York the Tudor claim was so weak it’s almost laughable
Totally agree. It's a shame Richard iii and the Yorkists didn't win at bosworth
@@lightfootpathfinder8218 and it was no thanks to Henry either, Richard charged straight at him to engage him but Henry just say with his body guards
I don t know henry s pretty cool
Well said Adam.Cannot understand why the Tudor usurpers are so popular.They were a horrible lot.Though I have to admit there were some Plantagenet's were kinda 'off'' too.By all accounts tho,Bess of York had a happy marriage.
It’s exactly this type of concise presentation that holds the potential to make UA-cam an educational resource rather than a mindless circus. This is especially true for those who, for various reasons, find conventional paths of education overwhelming. I wish you and your channel much success.
Interesting episode, shame Arthur died, history would have been very different. Cheers 👍🏻👍🏻
Maybe Henry viii suffered brain damage during that jousting competition and would have been a better king.
@@lieslceleste3395 Absolutely 👍🏻 Good point.
@@stevefox8605 I love to imagine these types of things. Suppose Harold didn’t need to fight in the north before engaging William in the south? Maybe England would have stayed Anglo Saxon.
Coming up very soon Steve…
@ Steve Fox I do agree that it is a shame that Arthur died because yes history would have been different...like I wonder what and how things would have turned out of Henry VIII wasn't full of lust and love and simply strutted past Anne Boleyn, in turn, eliminating Elizabeth I ;) I do truly see your view though...it is interesting to think of how things could have been so different 😀
Only if he knew what a snake he raised. I wonder if Arthur would have been as evil as Henry.
Henry VIII was not raised to be king and took part in activities such as jousting. Henry VIII would suffer a severely head injury whilst jousting, possibly giving him sustained head trauma. Arthur was raised to be a good king and most likely instilled with kingly values.
@@ludicrous5765 I agree with you in full. Henry was the "spare" and raised as one...he was catapulted into his reign with very little knowledge and guidance and I ultimately I believe a part of the reason why Henry VIII kept up his "boyish ways" was that he never properly grieved or was able to fully process the unimaginable events that quickly led him to the throne that he was clearly unprepared for.
Arthur is reputed to be a gentle & kind young man.
Thank you for this. Very interesting and well researched.
There was such a great love, it seemed, between Henry VII and his wife, Elizabeth of York. For a match that was made so long ago, it's clear that there was a lot of devotion and tenderness between them. It would be so nice to see more adaptations of Henry VII. I would definitely recommend the Shadow of the Tower, but- not you, Phillipa Gregory. Go away. *shoo's an imaginary Phillipa Gregory out of sight*.
Has anything more been learned about the possibility of Edward Plantagenet being spirited away to the west country to live in obscurity?Or what happened to young Richard?The suspense is killing me!
@@susanmccormick6022 To this day, it's still not clear. Lambert Simnel and Perkin Warbeck were, without a doubt, imposters, but as to the fates of the princes, it was always assumed that King Richard had them murdered. After all, with the two, young heirs out of the way, he was able to take the throne. Even if they were declared bastards, they still had a stronger claim than he did. Don't get me wrong, I still hope to learn, once and for all, what happened but it still is one of the biggest mysteries out there.
@@juliamontgomery7312 Tell me about it!Edward was being treated by a doctor whilst in the Tower & was known to be frail.There is a strong chance that if Perkin wasn't Diccon of Shrewsbury,his Plantagenet looks might have made him one of Edward's by blows of whom he was said to have many.And the poor lad was beaten before death,to hide those looks.H7 had poor Edward,son of Clarence murdered to please Ferdinand & Isabella & enable their daughter to marry Arthur.So he was no stranger to 'justifable'murder.And John of Gloucester,Richard's bastard son.He even dated his reign to the day before the battle,so men fighting for their lawful king were attainted.I guess I am just not a fan of any of the Tudors.
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Henry VII: *having a painful death*
Richard III:🤔
Amazing video again 🌳👍
I totally understand what he go through. I've had liver cirrosis and enduring every sorts of pain. My feet became so bloated that the skin on the top of them tear, I had to have ponctions that removes 6 to 10 liters of acite for my belly each weeks for two years. Many life threatening hemmoragies, calcification of many joints in my body. I was at 1 week from death when they called me for transplantation. I wished to died many times the last month. In theses time beeing sick would have be no joke. Grieves for somebody is a thing but grieving for yourself is another thing. When the real time come I will be ready because I already know what it is to be dying.
My sincere sympathy.But though possible,I believe H8 was just plain obnoxious with a Me,Me,Me!complex.
Henry Vll was an underrated King.He took the throne during a turbulent time and gave England stability and power.He was certainly ruthless but a ruler needed to be hard to solidify the reign.He also never became obese like his son Henry Vlll.
He loved his wife and children so dearly that he couldn't cope with their loss. I wonder why Henry Viii hated his wives and daughters. Prince Arthur would have been kinder but he died so young. Henry Vii was truly a family man and a great military commander, winning and establishing long awaited peace in England.
There is no evidence he was a great military commander or even a soldier
Goofy looking thing though.
Pain was part of life in those days, even for a king.
Thanks TF ~ 😊✅❤️
Just a shame Richard 3rd lost that battle ,,, if he'd have made it and killed Henry English history would have been so different and probably the rest of the world .,..
A very wicked man was Richard 111 and that is why the leading nobles supported Henry.Murderer of Henry V1,his brother and the two nephews.
@@brogsbunny why are you using a 1 instead of I with your Roman numerals?
@@brogsbunny There is NO proof that Richard harmed those children,or even that they died at all.There are several others who had reason to remove them.Stanley the turncoat,the unstable Duke of Buckingham & Margaret Beaufort to name 3.Tudor was a cold hearted coward who allowed his men to put him on the throne.He was preparing to flee when Richard led that last charge.Curse those two timing Stanleys.When Richard threatened the death of his hostage,Lord Strange, Stanley's son,if he didn't obey orders,Stanley sent a reply showing the kind of man he was."I have other sons"And what about the Tudor making the start of his reign as the day before the battle so he could execute men who fought for their rightful king,as traitors?And his cruelty to Clarence's poor son & the disfiguration of Perkin Warbeck to disguise his Plantagenet looks before he too was killed?Talk about Like Father,like son.He was miserly & cruel to Kat of Aragon too.I am glad Bess of York seemed happy with him though.She went thru so much,then died trying to replace his heir.
I’m just in awe to step back in time. And imagine what it was like in 1400’s
"Someone grab my painting cap." - Henry VII
Strange how we marvel and look in wonderment to these historical figures and try to understand them when really, the only reason how history knows them is because they were born from a diamond encrusted merkin and ruled with an iron fist of fear, terror, torture and murder.
You are a thousand times the person they were but history will never remember you. No-one will ever know you even existed.
King Henry VIII was a bloody tyrant, hands down!
He died of an unknown illness but he did recover. What?
😂😂
Henry the eighth turned out to be a mean tyrant, especially to his two daughters. He blamed Catherine and Anne for not giving him a son, but it’s the male gene that determines what the baby is
Actually Catherine had a son but he died as an infant
They didn't understand how a babies sex was determined back then.
They thought god would grant sons if they prayed and god favored them. Stillborn children then must be a punishment from god or blamed on the woman for doing something wrong.
Catherine had a son who lived around 55 days then a son who died shortly after birth and a stillborn son plus 2 stillborn daughters.
She tended to go into labor early around 8 months and with no real medical care and her determined to fast even while pregnant its hard to know if she had a medical issue or was causing it through starvation.
Anne had at least one miscarriage that was a son and before that many reports at the time talk of her being quite far along in a pregnancy after Elizabeth's birth but nothing stating what happened or what the baby was.
There may have been 3 but so much stuff about her was gotten rid of on Henry's orders.
He never fathered anymore children after Edward and out of all his affairs he only fathered one son. I think he would of clamed any children just to show people its not his fault so the fact he only clamed one makes me think he only had one.
Also in a time when basic medicine and health care didn't really exist its not surprising so many babies died before or not long after birth.
@@Kaylee-Renee that's some good information. I think it's interesting how kings and rulers thought they could bend God to their will rather than accept what lot God gave them in life
@@thekashreview914 I heard it was his idea to marry his illegitimate son to Mary.Horrific!
died from an unknown illness..but then recovered?
That picture of the 4 tudor monarchs is missing kind edward. why is that?
Edward was rather a cold fish. He watched his uncles going to their deaths and noted it in his diary without comment.
@@micksherman7709 I only meant that he was the 5th Tudor monarch, no matter how short or strange his time as king was.
@@traceyrossmann2989 I think ‘kind’ was a typo for ‘king’.
@@micksherman7709 lol 🤣 yeah
@@traceyrossmann2989 The third Tudor monarch.
I looked away for a second and looked back when I heard Elizabeth of York at 0:36 seconds. Until I read Henry VII I thought I was looking at a picture of her. I won't repeat my first thought but let's just say I thought she was unusual looking.
I wish Arthur had never passed so soon.I think he would have been a better king than his brother Henry.
I think he was interested in Mad Juana not Joanna of Naples
I’m a living Tudor in the US.
Sounds like Henry the eighth had brain damage
He was a psychopath.
The narrator in this video needs to work on his presentation. His voice goes up and down and is quite distracting.
Poor Richard iii
The Tudors had a shaking claim to the throne hence why they were so barbaric. They ruled with fear because of fear.
Courtiers is pronounced court-yers not courtieres
I’m just struggling to listen to his intonation. UA-cam should really do speech lessons for educational video creators, as people who create videos like this, really do have the best intentions!
Omg blow your nose before narrating. The nasalness is cringe. Interesting but hard to listen to
Let's hear it for primogeniture , the 2nd maddest shit we ever signed up for .
You have a terrible reading style. It was difficult to get thru this but I was curious about the history. Just thought you should know. No animosity here.
He thought he was so cool with his correct spelling and chess. Look who's laughing now.
I'm Henry the 8th I am
😍😜🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👏🌹
The Tudor Usurper's
I'd always heard what a upslurper he was and had no right to be there but he married the daughter of the king which had the legal right to the throne. He also took it by fighting.
Upslurper?Oh I love that!But he never lifted a finger to win the throne.He stayed well out of harm & was preparing to run,when Richard led that charge & the cursed Stanley's turned their coats once again.
