Wars
Henry VIII fought many wars, against the French, against the Scots, against the Gaelic lords of Ireland, against rebels in his own realms, even against his traditional allies in the Netherlands.
One of the most renowned kings in English history, Henry V (1387-1422) led two successful invasions of France, cheering his outnumbered troops to victory at the 1415 Battle of Agincourt and eventually securing full control of the French throne.
Religion
England was a Catholic nation under the rule of Henry VII (1485-1509) and during much of Henry VIII's (1509-1547) reign. Church services were held in Latin. When Henry VIII came to the throne, he was a devout Catholic and defended the Church against Protestants.
The Word of God was controlled by those who could read and understand Latin. But in 1536, Henry VIII made it legal to translate the Bible into English, giving his people direct access to the Word of God. This was in line with wider religious reforms taking place on the continent, as part of the Reformation.
