H7 Rebellions
Yorkshire Rebellion 1489
Background
Henry 7 decided to raise taxes to support the south coast, Brittany. People in Yorkshire refused to pay taxes.
The reason why they were asking was because they had a poor harvest, and so didn't get a lot of money imputed, and they had just had a war with Scotland (foreign at the time)
Rebellion
Earl of Northumberland, Henry Percy, was murdered in a place where Yorkish sympathizers were popular. He was murdered because he was the one collecting tax around.
The rebellions wanted a Parden, but Henry didn't grant them one and let 8,000 men army, lead by Earl of Surrey, Thomas Howard, to arrest the perpetrators, including their leader Sir John Egremont
