Because Henry VII won the War of the Roses to start the Tudor reign. Because his second son, Henry VIII, was never suppose to be King. Because Henry VIII fell in love with Anne Boleyn so deeply that he pursued her for 7 years, propelling the Reformation. Because Anne refused to be Henry's mistress. Because he had six wives and only one bore him a son, who died at a young age. Because Anne, a feminist in her own time, was the mother of Elizabeth I, who never married. Because Lady Jane sat on the throne for 9 days. Because Bloody Mary was no more bloodier than Elizabeth. Because Elizabeth loved Robert Dudley but never gave him, nor any man, a piece of her crown.
