Thanks for posting this. Since I was a kid I was interested in Henry (PBS did that!)

Many of Henry VIII’s, Bloody Mary’s and Elizabeth’s problems can be traced back to Henry VII’s decisions. Rather than marrying Arthur to an English girl, he went after Isabella’s daughter due to the incredibly huge dowry, half on the day of marriage and half when an heir was acknowledged. When Arthur died, he didn’t want to give the partial dowry back so he hooked his next son Henry VIII up to Catherine, after almost marrying her, himself. And then the trouble started to brew..

Being a noble in England was a hazardous occupation back then.
