What I appreciate about medieval Monarchs is that they actually went out and fought battles! They went out and defended their kingdoms. Theyâre not just sitting in their castles theyâre doing things!

Itâs a shame that Henry VII is overshadowed by his son and grandchildren, if he hadnât won Bosworth there would have been no tudors
226 |
Henry VII was a descendant of Welsh Royalty and Edward I via Eleanor of England on his fatherâs side. Describing him as a mere servant suggests he was nothing more than a stable hand.
14 |
The Tudors were quickly followed by the Fordors and then the Hatchbacks.
149 |
I'm not a fan of the Tudors, but you can't deny that they as a dynasty shaped England (and the UK) for centuries to come.
56 |
You've discounted the role of Henry's mother in bringing him to the throne and arranging the marriage with Elizabeth.
120 |
As has been alluded to in other comments,his mother's story is even more extraordinary imo.

Somewhat ironic that Henry's dreams of a dynasty in Prince Arthur were destroyed by the sweating sickness that some have attributed to the mercenary army that he used to seize the throne from Richard. Once that victorious army entered London, after Bosworth, it wasn't long before the first major recorded outbreak of 'The Sweat' hit England, killing thousands. It would come back to hit poor and rich alike for the next 66 years, including the twin sons of Henry's son-in-law, Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk (he who was also the son of Henry's standard bearer at Bosworth!).

Excellent narrative. It goes to the heart of this king. I like it, when the historian reveals the core of a historical personality.

Always loving these videos, well done lads, looking forward to dive into this one â¤

Whatâs with the comments painting Henry & his mother as paragonâs of evil while Richard was this poor martyred saint? Richard had good qualities AND did shady things to take the crown. Margaret & Henry too. They were all ambitious, products of their times.

I feel that this is a rather miserly account of Henry's achievements. Given the turbulence of the times, his paranoid autocracy was probably unavoidable. The alternative would have been continuing bloody and disruptive civil wars. His son and his grandchildren were equally brutal in securing the throne, so I for one don't judge him too harshly.
But he should also be given credit for modernising the fiscal system, developing commerce and trade, reducing the disruptive power of the nobility and patronising scholarship and the arts. He also largely avoided ruinous entanglements in France.
So he ushered in a period of relative peace and prosperity, creating the foundations of the modern centralised state.

My interest of William I to Charles III.. I have come to the conclusion that Henry VII is arguably the biggest reason that England became the powerhouse that dominated the world. 130 years of wars and he cleaned it all up (relatively). He sorted out the monarch/armyâs dependence on the parliament. He made the crown wealthy in its own right. He gave relative peace and raised crown funds from mostly the wealthy. He wasnât spending silly amount either but he did jump on paying for things such as reaching the Americas 2nd after Spain. Forward thinking yet conservative.
Also importantly and what distinguishes him from say Henry 2nd or Edward 3rd or Henry 8th.. Henry 7th nailed succession and gave decent chance of first properly English dynasty without creating a situation of immediate infighting or ridiculous wars
In my mind Henry Tudor is the king who made England into the power it became more than any other single monarch.
Henry VII Edward I William III Elizabeth I is my current Mount Rushmore of monarchs that made England and Britain successful in relative terms to other monarchies.

I donât think he had a hunger for power, his mother had that hunger!
53 |
Iâm not a huge fan of the royal family. But I do like learning the history about them . We canât change history but can learn from it
27 |
A fascinating period and well explained by the historian
15 |
Iâm not sure that Thomas More would agree that Henry VIII was an improvement over Henry VII.
31 |
I did not know of the extent of Henryâs ruthlessness. Iâve re-thought my opinion of him as a king. I can understand why he was such a suspicious man. but not extorting money from the nobles and even worse from his hardworking subjects. Thank you.
