This makes it even more interesting to me - and especially so now that my wife and I are hooked on that "Tutors" show on Showtime. In it, the queen is The Queen even though she was only a Spanish princess before marrying The King of England (good ol' Henry VIII).Henry VIII's queens were queens consort, not joint monarchs. They had the title but not the power.Also, this Henry was a Tudor and wasn't he the one that formed the Church of England?Correct and correct. Basically because the Church of Rome wouldn't endorse his changing consorts in midstream, as I remember.
I think it was a whole lot more comlicated than that. Certainly that's what I was taught in History at school, but I think there must have been, at that time, a major groundswell of anti-catholic feeling in England. _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
