Plus Lady Jane Grey isn’t recognized as a legitimate monarch. Mary I is credited as the first female monarch of England.

No offense, but how do you miss one whole queen, or two, depending on your point of view ? Edward didn't leave his throne to Elizabeth. He left it to Jane Grey, who held it for only days before Henry's first daughter, Mary, became Queen. Mary held the throne for several years until her death. Elizabeth then inherited the throne from her half sister not Edward.

There were some minor factual errors at the beginning

I have my own theories about Anne’s miscarriages and stillbirths. She suffered through this illness called the sweating sickness (which killed her sister Mary’s first husband, among others) and I feel like she never fully recovered. Perhaps Elizabeth was a “miracle” but after that, the effects of said sickness took effect. I know that there is no direct cause for eithe miscarriage of stillbirth (some say stress but no direct cause is found). Once again, just a theory but it’s interesting to think about especially considering how stressful being queen and former mistress of the king

I would love to see Weird History cover The Poisoning Plot at Versailles involving Louis XIV's mistress and several other courtiers at Versailles. It's a fascinating story. Also, another idea for an interesting, weird bit of history would be the man in the Iron Mask fiasco. Thanks Weird History!

Actually, right before Edwards death they drew up an emergency plan, called the "Device to Succession" that named Jane Grey, Edwards protestant cousin, as his successor. She was never coronated, so she wasn't technically a Queen, but she was at the same time. Still, only for 9 days until Mary I, the ACTUAL claimant to the Throne of England, and all her many many supporters swept into London and claimed the throne. She was going to allow Jane Grey to live, knowing that she had been influenced and even forced into the agreement by Edwards privy counsel and nobles. However, her father kept plotting coups to take back the Throne for his daughter and her young husband, so she ended up being executed along with her young husband and her father.

Your information is incorrect. Edward left the throne to Lady Jane Grey who was Queen for nine days until, Mary, daughter of Catherine of Aragon, rode into London with an army, captured Queen Jane Grey, and had her beheaded. Mary then became Queen, known as "Bloody Mary', and when she died a few years later, her half-sister, Elizabeth I became Queen.

Edward IV left his cousin Jane Grey, the Nine Days Queen as his heir, but Mary I fought this and reclaimed her spot in the succession as left in Henry VIII's will. Elizabeth I succeeded her half sister Mary I.

The letters are in the Vatican because the case for annulment went before the Holy See...that's why...Anne was not giving anything up until Henry put a ring on her finger. This was a big deal after all. Henry did not say he was a protestant....he just said...he was head of the Catholic church in England and that everyone should swear an oath of allegiance to him. The church of England as it is now was in place in Elizabeth's I time much later/

Lady Jane Gray was “queen” for a couple days. Like most families, her family orchestrated this. Then Mary became Queen & non catholics(mainly protestants) were persecuted .This is where Bloody Mary comes from. She thought she was pregnant but turned out to be a mass & passed from it. Elizabeth became the virgin queen. My mom was a world cultures teacher for 20+ years. I love this topic & Marie Antoinette🤙🏽

HOW COULD YOU GET THE ENDING WROOOOONGGGGG tho

I don’t think it’s TOO crazy to leave Lady Jane Grey off of this, only because her 9-day reign itself was disputed, and from what we know Jane accepted the crown under duress, and happily relinquished her claim when Mary I won. She can easily be considered an illegitimate monarch. But leaving Mary I out makes no sense. She was crowned and reigned for 5 years.

Henry's codpieces!! I couldn't stop laughing...

So, as stated in numerous comments there were a number of inaccuracies and aspects left out in this video. First, part of the reason why Pope Clement was unwilling to grant the divorce was because Catherine's nephew was Charles The Fifth, who was the Holy Roman Emperor at the time. Catherine, being the smart and very shrewd woman she was, had written to Charles talking about her treatment by the king and asking Charles for help. He responded (or some say his men acted independently) by having his troops march into Rome, forcing Clement to flee the Vatican and remain a virtual prisoner for the rest of his days in Rome. Clement obviously did not want to antagonize his jailer (who for all intents and purposes was Charles) so he declined Henry's request. Secondly, as previously stated, Edward reigned for six years after Henry died, before he passed it to Lady Jane Grey. She reigned for a mere 9 days before Mary the First took over, reigning for five years before she then died and Elizabeth the First took over.

One of my favorite track. From Rick Wakeman.

Wait no. When Edward died, Lady Jane Grey became a bit of a pseudo queen for a few days before being overthrown and executed by Queen Mary.

Mary became queen after Edward. Well there was the nine day queen in between, but her head rolled. Elizabeth was after her elder half sister Mary

Technically, Henry and Catherine DID have a son - Henry, Duke of Cornwall. He only lived a few months, but he was born alive and would have been Henry IX if he'd lived.

You missed one huge detail. After Edward died his sister Mary Tudor was crowned queen and proceeded to go on a years-long mission of burning every protestant she could find.
