World History Encyclopedia's video: The Forgotten Tudor Royals Edward VI Lady Jane Grey and Mary I of England

Did you know that Lady Jane Grey was only 16 when she became Queen of England? This video is all about the three forgotten Tudor rulers of England between Henry VIII and Elizabeth I: Edward VI, Lady Jane Grey, and Mary I of England. Edward VI of England reigned as king from 1547 to 1553 CE. Succeeding his father Henry VIII of England (r. 1509-1547 CE), Edward was only nine years old at the time and so the kingdom was ruled by a council of nobles, foremost among whom was Edward's maternal uncle, Edward Seymour (l. c. 1500-1552 CE) until he was replaced by John Dudley, the Earl of Northumberland (l. 1504-1553 CE). During Edward's reign, Protestant religious reforms continued as the Church of England broke further away from the traditions of the established Catholic Church directed by the Pope. Lady Jane Grey (1537-1554 CE) was briefly declared Queen of England for nine days in July 1553 CE following the death of her cousin Edward VI of England (r. 1547-1553 CE). Then only 16 and never officially crowned, Lady Jane was first an unknowing and then an unwilling pawn in a political coup orchestrated by John Dudley, the Earl of Northumberland (l. 1504-1553 CE) who was, in effect, Edward VI's regent. — SUPPORT US VIA OUR PATREON— https://www.patreon.com/join/whencyclopedia — BUY OUR MERCH — https://www.worldhistory.store​/​ — CHAPTERS — 0:00​ Introduction 0:49 The Tudor Dynasty 1:54 Edward VI of England 5:28 Lady Jane Grey 9:24 Mary I of England 14:06 Outro — WANT TO KNOW MORE? — Mary I https://www.worldhistory.org/Mary_I_of_England/ Edward VI https://www.worldhistory.org/Edward_VI_of_England/ Lady Jane Grey https://www.worldhistory.org/Lady_Jane_Grey/ — WATCH NEXT — King Henry VIII and His Six Wives https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRJhEgD6S1M Elizabethan Theatre, Queen Elizabeth I, and William Shakespeare https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K66AFyeSoYE The Spanish Armada vs. The Royal Navy of Elizabeth I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMVORli6lxA An Introduction to the Punic Wars - Ancient Rome vs. Carthage https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ex0ZtLjsQQg&t — ATTRIBUTIONS — You can find all attribution and credits for images, animations, graphics and music here - https://athena.worldhistory.org/article/MWiOJta1fqb-Forgotten-Royal-Tudors-Images-and-Attributions The music used in this recording is the intellectual copyright of Michael Levy, a prolific composer for the recreated lyres of antiquity, and used with the creator's permission.
