Catherine of Aragon, I need a son to take over my heir. Wat am I going to do with just Daughters? Mary is not an acceptable heir!
I can't stay with her, but I also am not allowed to get a divorce. I must get an annulment.
I'm trying my best Henry, but I'm getting old.
I refuse to annul your marriage so that you can marry Anne Boleyn. You wife's nephew is the Holy Roman empire, I do not want to upset him.
If you don't annul my marriage, I am taking over the church and placing it under my rule!
Everything was going well. I made my dear friend Thomas Cranmer archbishop and he annulled my marriage to Catherine. But then you gave birth to Elizabeth. Not a son like you promised! Both you and Thomas More betrayed me... off with your heads!
After Anne, Henry VIII married 4 other women. (Left to Right) Jane Seymour gave birth to his only son, Edward. This was Henry's favorite wife, but once she died, he married Anne Cleves. They did not get along well, so they got a divorce.. Then, he married a young 15 year old girl, Catherine Howard. She cheated on him and therefore was beheaded. His last marriage was to Catherine Parr.
Throughout his marriages, Henry closed all the convents and monasteries in England. He gave some church lands to nobles and other high-ranking citizens, which gave him wealth that he used to pursue wars in Europe.
What England needs is Calvinist reforms! The church needs to have protestant service and still have catholic doctrines.
These reforms of the church sparked uprisings.
