The Rise of the Fall of Englands Tudor Dynasty

The dynasty started when Richard III was defeated by Henry Tudor at Bosworth Field Battle (Swabey, 2010). This win made Henry Tudor, Henry VII the king of England. During the period of its rule they had a notable achievement and were involved in a dynastic politics advocating for legitimate male heir who had to have diplomatic relationships with other kingdoms depending, to some extent, on successful marriage with other royal families. They are famous mainly because their dynasty was marked by big events and colorful characters. Heart of Their Political Problems Henry VIII had a great problem when it came to dealing with political unrest with assistance by his advisers i. However, the rebellion did take long the leaders fled to Scotland and they were surrendered to Elizabeth I (Fletcher, 2008).

How Their Political Problems Should Have Been Solved Henry VIII’s problem of rebellion due to resistance of his advisers could have been solved by taking in a better counsel which could have been liked by the English people who could bring popular policies to the people. Mary Tudor’s reign rebellion sparked by the marriage to Philip of Spain could have been solved by her marrying a member of English nobility instead. This could have probably helped her not finding herself of not producing an heir and give her a peaceful coexistence with her people. Elizabeth I ought to have avoided Mary Queen of Scots’ presence to avoid a bad relationship with her people hence she could have not summoned them in court to gauge their loyalty.

France on their part; lost their military edge after the defeat and got a desolating impact on its national political life. Due to this defeat French monarch suffered great blow and could not recover in next decades a demonstration that French people were ruled by a system that was not upright full of autocracy privileging nobility at the expense of the ruled. French monarchy continued borrowing to veil its military expenses led the kingdom to be declared bankrupt. This ignited the French Revolution; which was world’s major change in the evolution of political system in France and whole Europe in general for several decades (Anderson, 2007). Prussia on their side survived the war and kept Silesia with their leader Fredrick II becoming a hero and the country became one of highly ranked European countries even completing with likes of Austria for Diet of the Holy Roman Empire (Anderson, 2007).
