House of Tudor

The House of Tudor was a royal dynasty that ruled England from 1485 to 1603. It began with Henry VII, who took the throne after defeating Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth Field, marking the end of the Wars of the Roses. The Tudors are known for significant monarchs such as Henry VIII, famous for his six marriages and the English Reformation, and Elizabeth I, who oversaw a cultural renaissance and the defeat of the Spanish Armada. The Tudor period greatly influenced English history, politics, and culture, leaving a lasting legacy even after their rule ended with Elizabeth I's death.
