This video, while mostly accurate, does make a pretty big mistake. Henry VIII had an older brother, Arthur, who was first married to Catherine of Aragon and was the one raised to be king. Henry was raised to be in the church, I believe. He only inherited after Arthur died.
You are correct. Arthur first married Caterina (Catherine) of Aragon and, when he died, Henry VII sought to keep her dowry and then on his deathbed made Henry VIII promise to marry her. The fact that as the heir Henry was intended for high rank in the Church had a hand with the focus of Henry's education bein theology and canon law. This actually gave Henry an edge when he pressed for his divorce from Catherine.
Mary Tudor was actually had a pretty tragic life. She was persecuted for being Catholic under her father's reign, and she loved her siblings dearly, though the feeling were not returned.
@@AgentM3nace she only implemented those policies on the insistance of her husband Philip, and her persecutions were smaller than the widespread anti Catholic ones under Henry VIII and Elizabeth I. her being called "bloody Mary" only happened once Elizabeth took the throne and played up how bad her sister was to justify Catholics being persecuted.
I don't think you can justify sibling love when you had one of your siblings almost executed Mary almost had Elizabeth executed her conscience is what saved Elizabeth from the axe
@@Miniburn_04 imagine if Anne Boleyn and Cathrine Howard were never killed and they got a divorce and both were still alive during Mary’s reign could that made Elizabeth more closer in getting killed and would Mary have Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard killed in your opinion
She loved Edward; she tolerated Elizabeth and still though of Anne Boleyn as a whore. Edward's mother, Jane Seymour, and Henry married after Catherine of Argon had died, thus making that marriage legitimate in Mary Tudor's eyes.

I’m happy they included Elizabeth’s love affairs; most kid shows now only mention her as the Virgin Queen when she was anything but. She once dated a man, dumped him, later dated his step-son who she had executed for trying to lead a rebellion. She also never wanted her cousin, Queen Mary of Scotland, executed. She did sign the warrant, but never submitted it. Her secretary stole it from her desk and did it. Elizabeth was so furious that she had him imprisoned in the Tower of London for 18 months and wrote an apology letter to King James of Scotland, Mary’s son. Fun fact: Elizabeth was also a pirate queen in a way.

@@karlemata3275 not entirely. After Henry the 8th married Anne Boleyn, Mary 1 was considered a bastard and excluded from the throne. When he reinstated Mary, her brother gave the throne to Lady Jane Grey. She had to reclaim the throne and rewrote her father's mistakes.
On the death of childless Elizabeth I, the English throne went to King James VI of Scotland. He was descended from King Henry VII eldest daughter, who was married off to King James IV. So the island of Britain was under one monarch.
It's interesting to think that the Tudor dynasty lasted across five monarchs and was arguably one of the most influential dynasties in English history, but technically only lasted for three generations

Zech Wood that is not true the Tudor Dynasty ended since Elizabeth didn't give birth to an heir, you could be related to the Boleyn's since Anne had sisters but not the Tudors, so stop lying
Richard III lost his life and the throne at the Battle of Bosworth, and Catherine Parr was spared due to several injuries Henry had suffered early into his reign. For an example, the worst occurred when his horse fell on top of him, trapping him under an equivalent weight of 7 washing machines. Mary had a strong reign, but her policies led to the name "Bloody" Mary Tudor, and Elizabeth I was probably the most popular and respected monarch until Queen Victoria.
I wish we had more shows like this for kids now a days. Don’t get me wrong I love a lot of the shows we have now and we really are in a bit of a golden age, but the Animaniac’s crowd in their prime was such good commentary on historical and contemporary topics
0:43- The lyrics should have been, "The couple was blessed with a healthy son, whom they named Arthur, but he died young, so the throne would be passed to their second son Henry...."
Song : Oh listen, ye all to a tale that’s true, When the War of the Roses tore England in two, King Richard III one fateful day, Fought Henry Tudor in a brutal fray. For poor King Richard life grew worse, He lost his kingdom for want of a horse. Henry VII was then made king, To Elizabeth of York he offered his ring. She said, “I do! Let’s give it a fling!” The union again made England one The couple was blessed with a healthy son. Young Henry grew up, the castle his home, When his father passed on he ascended the throne. Henry VIII took a wife from Spain, Catherine Aragon was her name. She bore him a daughter a cute little one, But to keep the throne he needed a son. Back then, that’s how things were done. For girls , it really wasn’t much fun. Their rocky marriage couldn’t get worse, But the pope refused to grant a divorce. So Henry started a church of his own, He got his divorce and stayed on the throne. Then Henry VIII wed Anne Boleyn, His former wife’s handmaiden. Anne gave birth to Elizabeth, But with no male kin, well you do the math! Poor Anne Boleyn, she lost her head, So once again King Henry wed. Jane Seymour gave to him a prince, But poor own Jane hasn’t woken up since. So for a while, our Henry grieves, Then he marries Anne of Cleves. Anne came from fine German stock, Their marriage was cancelled in less than a year. His fifth wife, Catherine Howard, was dear. But Henry found out that her love was not true, He gave her the axe, what’s a fella to do? So after five, came wife number six, Catherine Parr is who Henry picks, He promised her he would do her no harm, So six wives proved to be the charm! Henry gained pound right after pound, Till he needed machinery to move him around. He weighed about a quarter ton, Cause he couldn’t resist a sticky bun. In 1547, Henry VIII went off to heaven. Or maybe for his dirty tricks, To HE double hockey sticks! His young son Edward was only 10, When he took the English throne but then, Poor Edward died by age fifteen, His reign was followed by a queen. Jane Grey ruled for just 9 day, She lost her head, to coin a phrase! Mary Tudor was next in line, The British throne is mine, mine, mine! Mary had strength, she took no flack, She brought the Catholic church right back! At 42 Mary met her death, Then along came queen Elizabeth. She was loved by her people and made England strong, She had a few boyfriends, they didn’t last long. The Elizabethan age was just and fair, But Elizabeth never gave birth to an heir. And so we sing our last refrain, The end finally came to the Tudor’s reign. Elizabeth died in 1603, The end of the Tudor’s family tree. The end of the Tudor’s There can be no disputers, The end of the Tudor’s family tree… Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop! Timber!
I'm a tudor history major in college- and I owe my love of history to this show. And my sick sense of humor. I'm pretty sure I got that from this as well. lol
Actually Henry's ministers thought she was perfectly attractive. Their lives depended on satisfying him and they made the marriage treaty. There is a famous portrait of Anne that Henry fell in love with, and the ministers thought it was accurate. They were very surprised he was so upset by her. There are many theories, including that he was frustrated he couldn't get it up so he blamed her.
indiciaobscure It seems that she was pretty, just not as attractive as she was hyped to be. Thus, Henry had a certain image of her and when the reality did not match his expectations, he dismissed her as ugly.
Shinobi Daughter Tell that to the commenters calling out the "inaccuracies" in the song. While I WILL agree on the portrait mix-up, during the 6 wives recap. Let's be real here...who are we to say that Henry VIII wasn't a cruel wife killer or that Elizabeth ! wasn't that great of a queen
+Shinobi Daughter it is treu but when they edward vi became king at 10 it was achrely 9 and alwas a sickley kid but died in 1553 at age 15 of some illnes
imsokewl27 Actually, I was speaking against those who said he wasn't a killer. Unless we were around back then. How are we to know he did or didn't kill his wives
Love this song and it is an excellent way to remember names and dates! I do not know if it was dubbed in Italian (my language) but it would have been an even easier way to remember King Henry's wives's fate since it always begins with a D, except for Catherine Parr! Catherine of Aragon = Divorziata (Divorced) Anne Boleyn = Decapitata (Beheaded) Jane Seymour = Deceduta (Deceased for natural causes) Anne of Cleves = Divorziata (Divorced) Catherine Howard = Decapitata (Beheaded) Catherine Parr = Sopravvissuta (Survived)
After learning about the Tudor dynasty, I made a interesting discovery: both of the queens in Alice in Wonderland represent Mary and Elizabeth. Examples: Mary Tudor was often referred to as Bloody Mary due to the number of Protestants she had executed and under her reign, Elizabeth was a noble caring leader.
Mary only killed about 300 people during her reign while Elizabeth executed about 700. I cannot see why its the older sister everybody thought was the monster?
Falx Carius I agree. I think he would have been an interesting king, and I enjoyed reading about him when I studied the Tudors. Unfortunately, because he never ascended to the throne most people prefer to overlook him, which is a real shame.
Falx Carius That's what I think too. He certainly would have been better than his brother. Henry VIII may have been an important historical figure, but he was still a major douchebag.
Irreligious Idiot There was a couple reasons she was beheaded: 1:She was cheating on him 2:She gave Henry VIII a girl 3: Not only that but she made several children but none survived (except Elizabeth) 4: She had a sixth finger on her left hand- she was accused of being a witch
They forgot Arthur Tudor, and it wasn't the end of the Tudor's family tree, only their name. Henry VII had two daughters, one of which was Margaret. Margaret had a son, who had a daughter, who had a son who was king after Elizabeth.
No. Avital was right. Daughters. (I know, VII and VIII look similar. I can see where you thought otherwise.) On a side note, female line didn’t count in those days. Even more prominent when you’re the only son (by technicality in VIII’s case upon Arthur’s death).
You think this family is sick. This is nothing compared to the Osman dynasty that ruled the Ottoman Empire. Throughout much of their history the first thing a new sultan would do is have all his male relatives murdered to prevent any rival claimants. Makes Henry VIII look like an angel.
the european kings too. The ruler's brothers and sisters just "happened" to die. Suleiman the Magnificient though let his siblings live. The crazy thing about the Ottomans is the harem
🏵️🪓Terrible Facts of the Terrible Tudor Era🪓🏵️ - Anne Bolyne, Henry VIII’s 2nd wife, wasn’t beheaded by an axe. Henry arranged for her to be executed by an expert French swordsman. They reckon that Anne’s head came off so quickly her lips were still moving when they picked it up! But Anne was lucky compared with what happened to Mary Queen of Scots 50 years later. When she was executed, the executioner missed on his first go. He only nicked the side of her head. The second chop got her in the neck but it still didn’t finish her off. The executioner tried again and to be on the safe side he used the axe like a saw to take her head off. And when he picked up her head, the executioner didn’t know that Mary wore a wig. The head fell out of the wig and rolled across the platform! Henry VIII’s son Prince Edward once lost his temper with his teacher. In his fury, he took a pet hawk pulled out its feathers and tore it in 4 pieces and said he’d like to do the same thing to his teacher! And before he died, his fingers turned black and dropped off! Bloody Mary was infamous for burning protestants at the stake, but sometimes she ordered to have bags of gunpowder strapped to their legs so they’d explode all over the place and be dead before they knew it! And when the Duke of Northumberland rebelled against Mary, he was sentenced to be hanged, drawn and quartered. But the judges came up with a more horrible punishment for the Duke. They ordered the executioner to pull out his heart and throw it in his face! A publisher called Stubbs wrote a book that dared to criticise Queen Elizabeth I, so she sentenced him to have his writing hand cut off! The date - 7th October 1571. The place - The Gulf of Patras in the Ionian Sea near Western Greece. The event - The Naval Battle of Lepanto. The mighty Ottomans 🇹🇷 were up against the combined forces of the Spanish 🇪🇸, Italian 🇮🇹 and Maltese 🇲🇹 navies, fighting for the future of Europe. The Ottoman captain could see the enemy ships were too far away to fire a single cannonball at. So, what would he do? Wait patiently and conserve energy for the battle ahead? NO! He and his crew tried to start a dance off! Now if the Spanish captain had any sense, he would ignore the crazy Ottoman behaviour. BUT HE DIDN’T! He actually got his shipmates to dance! Soon the battle got underway and you’d think things would get serious by now, right? WRONG! One Spanish sailor got his whole hand blown off! He needed to stop the bleeding, but he couldn’t find any bandages. So he used a dead chicken as a bandage! Soon the Ottomans ran out of ammunition and the enemy ships were closing in on them. So the Ottomans used fresh fruit as makeshift cannonballs!
+Herbivore The Carnivore The name 'Britain' for the island itself was already referred to in the 4th century BC, and has been used ever since. It is not 100% accurate, but its not wrong.
She isnt referring to Great Britain, she only says 'The British Throne', which in that time period is, again, not 100% correct, since Scotland wasnt part of England (Wales was), but its not wrong. 'And British throne' just sounds nice than 'English throne' in the song.
That poor 1603 baby at the end xD he looks so serious ready at his post and everything. And poor baby Mary xD Henry was like "get out!!! *sees Mary cry* not the baby, you!!!" After all, Catherine was kicked out and estranged from her daughter xD funny how on a comical level it was accurate to that point. People need to stop complaining, I think things like these are supposed to lure you to gain interest and research these things. Almost nothing but the Catherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn switched pictures are incorrect, geez guys. Want accurate, don't be lazy and go read a history book and allow the rest of us with a sense of humour to enjoy this.
Catherine of Aragon=Divorced Anne Boleyn=Beheaded Jane Seymour=Died Anne of Cleves=Divorced Catherine Howars=Beheaded Catherine Parr=Survived But really this is a good show
And tonight they are… Wait for it… LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!
some people keep saying that elizabeth kicked the catholic church out. Technically she didn't, she herself was protestant but she didn't have a problem with catholics like mary. trust me, i'm english i know
Ciara O'Rourke well england was a katholic country before 1688 when the english people asked willem III to be thier king and bring the protestant church back.
Elizabeth adopted a middle way policy for catholics this meant that they were still allowed their practices and some of their own elements in the Protestant church such as stained glass and green vestments. Catholic’s were only executed for treason under Elizabeth not so called heresy like Protestants were under Mary as well as small fines for catholics who committed recusancy (not going to church) so she didn’t really mind them
The only thing they miss out on is that Henry actually had an older brother - Arthur. That's all that's really missing. But he did die before Henry inherited, so that might be why.
I first heard this as an audio and DEFINITELY thought it must have been an Animaniacs banned hot take - and even after seeing the animation ... it still seems like it is them ... and I can see Yakko, Wakko, and Dot as EVERY character from reoccurring monarchs to wives while Yakko sings the Greensleeves set lyrics.
Yeah, Arthur. It's strange knowing that England could have been ruled by an Arthur after all, but it wasn't to be. Imagine if Arthur had never died, we might not even have the Church of England. I think they chose not to include Arthur because he never actually had the throne.
Henry VII had 3 children that matter: Arthur (Married Catherine of Aragon) Henry VIII (You know it..) Margaret (Married King Jamed IV of Scotland), Henry VIII went to be king then...the 4 monarchs...then the Stuarts but the Tudors do not end there. One of the descendants of Margaret was James VI of Scotland/James I of England which was technically Henry VIII's distant nephew.
"Divorced, beheaded, died! Divorced, beheaded, survived!" .....Is this where Horrible Histories got the idea? (Horrible Histories also had a segment called Terrible Tudors.)
3fatkid British children have used this to help them remember the fate of Henry's wives for many, many years. I don't know how far back it goes and who came up with it, but it was a long time ago.
Mary I Tudor was the first alive daughter of Catalina (Catherine) of Aragon and Henry VIII. Catalina (Catherine) of Aragon had three good friends in England: Thomas Moore, Erasmo of Rotterdam and one sister of Henry VIII. One of his friends in Spain was Juan Luis Vives, a christian intelectual coming from a jewish family.
He thought himself heaven sent, to which the people didn't consent. When poor James went off to heaven, his young son too thought he was heaven sent. Charles I soon plunged England into civil war, he lost his kingdom and so much more. Then came Cromwell and his reign of terror. Twas upon Cromwell's death the people said they had enough and brought Charles II back. When Charles died he was followed by another James. Once again a James did rule, but didn't know what to do. In 1688 James II was overthrown and William of Orange was offered the Throne
I feel like the cartoon over-exaggerates Anna of Cleves’ appearance. She actually did look fair, not like model material, obviously, but when Henry showed up, he thought that it’d be like she’d recognize him from the get-go, like in a fairytale. But being from Germany, she didn’t know many stories, and Henry was enraged on her appearance not looking much like a princess turned queen, mostly due to the fact that the painter Hans Holbein the Younger exaggerated her beauty. Anna of Cleves wasn’t ugly, she just didn’t quite live up to Henry’s expectations.
I always thought a handmaiden was just a servant, so I thought it weird his 2nd wife was a “commoner”. But for the Queen her handmaidens were women of noble birth, so all his wives were noble women
0:48 in the beginning of Henry the eighth was actually fit. And not fat. He only started gaining weight right before he divorce his first wife. It was a combination of adjusting accident that’s where he started actually gaining weight.
Why was the arrangement of the 6 wives started with Anne Boleyn then Catherine of Aragon. Also, they made it sound like Anne of Cleves is a horse with the line "Anne came from fine German stock"
I hate to point this out, but it really bothered me even as a kid:Father time and Loud kid are out of sync, pointing to the wrong wives in the break. It should be:Beheaded, Divorced, diedThe second batch is correct
+Marc Rizkalla he divorced the 1st wife, beheaded the second and the third died on her own. The he divorced number 4, beheaded number 5 and number 6 outlived him.
Great song, but Anne Boleyn was beheaded with a sword, not with an axe. Henry VIII even brought an expert executioner from France to England for her execution.
Asia Raven Brook Pettus Wasn't Anne's reasoning for the sword because a sword was clean and swift versus an axe taking many strikes to get the head off the neck?
I thought this was catchy growing up. But watching this now as a history major, there are so many things wrong with this song and the events portrayed it’s hard to watch.
Fun Facts: 0:48 Henry wasn't fat yet he actually had an incredibly fit body 0:51 Henry's brother Edward was supposed to be king and marry Catherine but died after his marriage which Henry took place and married his brother's widow (which the bible says leads to childlessness) 0:56 Henry actually tried to get his daughter Marry to wed Charles the V (Henry's cousin) though it was denied 1:07 it wasn't that the Pope refused but Charles prevented the Pope from doing much and the priest he sent to deal with the problem was too old to do anything 1:28 Anne was executed due to charges of Adultery with a musician and making fun of Henry's P***s
They forgot Arthur who married Catherine of Aragon first, they also messed up the divorced beheaded died divorced beheaded survived, but other that that its a good song
Not to mention, Henry and Catherine of Aragon's marriage was initially a happy one. It's only when their daughter Mary was born after a series of miscarriages and stillbirths that Henry's eye started to wander.
Time to correct: Firstly the obvious the pictures of Anne Boleyn and Catherine of Aragon are the wrong way round, secondly Richard the Third did not lose his kingdom for want of a horse that was added by Shakespeare of course! (Horrible Histories Reference), Thirdly Henry was raised in Eltham Palace not a Castle and finally Mary Tudor should have said English throne as British still applied to the Native Britons (Welsh, Cumbrians, Cornish) until the Acts of Union 1707 when it was to be applied to all inhabitants of the Island, to be fair though since I live in Britain I have learnt this from a very young age.
This video, while mostly accurate, does make a pretty big mistake. Henry VIII had an older brother, Arthur, who was first married to Catherine of Aragon and was the one raised to be king. Henry was raised to be in the church, I believe. He only inherited after Arthur died.

+Cray Cray He's probably related by marriage...
No because he was a very religious person
Rich Dezzi Heh I doubt it, you were an evil person
Richard III lost his life and the throne at the Battle of Bosworth, and Catherine Parr was spared due to several injuries Henry had suffered early into his reign. For an example, the worst occurred when his horse fell on top of him, trapping him under an equivalent weight of 7 washing machines. Mary had a strong reign, but her policies led to the name "Bloody" Mary Tudor, and Elizabeth I was probably the most popular and respected monarch until Queen Victoria.
if i become a history teacher, this is what i will put on the tv when i have to learn my students the tudors
I wish we had more shows like this for kids now a days. Don’t get me wrong I love a lot of the shows we have now and we really are in a bit of a golden age, but the Animaniac’s crowd in their prime was such good commentary on historical and contemporary topics
Tom Ruegger the creator is open about bring this show back
0:43- The lyrics should have been, "The couple was blessed with a healthy son, whom they named Arthur, but he died young, so the throne would be passed to their second son Henry...."
Song :
Oh listen, ye all to a tale that’s true,
When the War of the Roses tore England in two,
King Richard III one fateful day,
Fought Henry Tudor in a brutal fray.
For poor King Richard life grew worse,
He lost his kingdom for want of a horse.
Henry VII was then made king,
To Elizabeth of York he offered his ring.
She said, “I do! Let’s give it a fling!”
The union again made England one
The couple was blessed with a healthy son.
Young Henry grew up, the castle his home,
When his father passed on he ascended the throne.
Henry VIII took a wife from Spain,
Catherine Aragon was her name.
She bore him a daughter a cute little one,
But to keep the throne he needed a son.
Back then, that’s how things were done.
For girls , it really wasn’t much fun.
Their rocky marriage couldn’t get worse,
But the pope refused to grant a divorce.
So Henry started a church of his own,
He got his divorce and stayed on the throne.
Then Henry VIII wed Anne Boleyn,
His former wife’s handmaiden.
Anne gave birth to Elizabeth,
But with no male kin, well you do the math!
Poor Anne Boleyn, she lost her head,
So once again King Henry wed.
Jane Seymour gave to him a prince,
But poor own Jane hasn’t woken up since.
So for a while, our Henry grieves,
Then he marries Anne of Cleves.
Anne came from fine German stock,
Their marriage was cancelled in less than a year.
His fifth wife, Catherine Howard, was dear.
But Henry found out that her love was not true,
He gave her the axe, what’s a fella to do?
So after five, came wife number six,
Catherine Parr is who Henry picks,
He promised her he would do her no harm,
So six wives proved to be the charm!
Henry gained pound right after pound,
Till he needed machinery to move him around.
He weighed about a quarter ton,
Cause he couldn’t resist a sticky bun.
In 1547,
Henry VIII went off to heaven.
Or maybe for his dirty tricks,
To HE double hockey sticks!
His young son Edward was only 10,
When he took the English throne but then,
Poor Edward died by age fifteen,
His reign was followed by a queen.
Jane Grey ruled for just 9 day,
She lost her head, to coin a phrase!
Mary Tudor was next in line,
The British throne is mine, mine, mine!
Mary had strength, she took no flack,
She brought the Catholic church right back!
At 42 Mary met her death,
Then along came queen Elizabeth.
She was loved by her people and made England strong,
She had a few boyfriends, they didn’t last long.
The Elizabethan age was just and fair,
But Elizabeth never gave birth to an heir.
And so we sing our last refrain,
The end finally came to the Tudor’s reign.
Elizabeth died in 1603,
The end of the Tudor’s family tree.
The end of the Tudor’s
There can be no disputers,
The end of the Tudor’s family tree…
Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop!
Timber!
Next : stuart
i love when Mary says" The British thrown is MINE, MINE, MINE!!
Mary was s a s s y
I'm a tudor history major in college- and I owe my love of history to this show. And my sick sense of humor. I'm pretty sure I got that from this as well. lol
This and Animaniacs.
2:49 that kid scares me the most 😨
"She had a face that could stop a clock." LOL LOL LOL
Except in real life she was plain but not ugly.
Actually Henry's ministers thought she was perfectly attractive. Their lives depended on satisfying him and they made the marriage treaty. There is a famous portrait of Anne that Henry fell in love with, and the ministers thought it was accurate. They were very surprised he was so upset by her. There are many theories, including that he was frustrated he couldn't get it up so he blamed her.
indiciaobscure It seems that she was pretty, just not as attractive as she was hyped to be. Thus, Henry had a certain image of her and when the reality did not match his expectations, he dismissed her as ugly.
And the thing is, she really wasn't ugly. The king was so old and fat he couldn't get it up anymore.
The real Anne of Cleves was probably perfectly okay to look at but the line in the song and the exploding clock make me laugh every time.
The lyrics of the Tudors family tree song is the true story.
Shinobi Daughter Tell that to the commenters calling out the "inaccuracies" in the song.
While I WILL agree on the portrait mix-up, during the 6 wives recap. Let's be real here...who are we to say that Henry VIII wasn't a cruel wife killer or that Elizabeth ! wasn't that great of a queen
+Shinobi Daughter it is treu but when they edward vi became king at 10 it was achrely 9 and alwas a sickley kid but died in 1553 at age 15 of some illnes
+sadlobster1 agreed
+sadlobster1 Elizabeth was a good queen. But your right about Henry VIII not being a wife killer.
imsokewl27
Actually, I was speaking against those who said he wasn't a killer.
Unless we were around back then. How are we to know he did or didn't kill his wives
Love this song and it is an excellent way to remember names and dates! I do not know if it was dubbed in Italian (my language) but it would have been an even easier way to remember King Henry's wives's fate since it always begins with a D, except for Catherine Parr!
Catherine of Aragon = Divorziata (Divorced)
Anne Boleyn = Decapitata (Beheaded)
Jane Seymour = Deceduta (Deceased for natural causes)
Anne of Cleves = Divorziata (Divorced)
Catherine Howard = Decapitata (Beheaded)
Catherine Parr = Sopravvissuta (Survived)
The end is kind of disturbing
I know it scares me to see the shadow tree and the shadow kids the tree was the most scary part of the ending
Just the end, huh?
TIMBER
"Untill the 7th Dead it was quite a charming Tale"
After learning about the Tudor dynasty, I made a interesting discovery: both of the queens in Alice in Wonderland represent Mary and Elizabeth.
Examples: Mary Tudor was often referred to as Bloody Mary due to the number of Protestants she had executed and under her reign, Elizabeth was a noble caring leader.
elizabeth didn't care about the Irish.
demon0981 Well as the king I gotta say my daughter Mary did a horrible job
MARY STOP KILLING THOSE PROTESTANTS YOU HAD A COUNTRY TO RUN
DarthNicky she didn't need to
Elizabeth was worst. Trust me, she was trrible. Indeed, The Red Queen is a lot like Elizabeth, even in the redhair and Style
Mary only killed about 300 people during her reign while Elizabeth executed about 700. I cannot see why its the older sister everybody thought was the monster?
Nobody talks about Arthur :(
+Falx Carius Probably because he never ruled England; he died while still just a prince, so he never sat on the throne.
ElementalRhythm Still, he had so much potential
Falx Carius
I agree. I think he would have been an interesting king, and I enjoyed reading about him when I studied the Tudors.
Unfortunately, because he never ascended to the throne most people prefer to overlook him, which is a real shame.
ElementalRhythm If he had lived he likely would have lived up to his name.
Falx Carius
That's what I think too. He certainly would have been better than his brother. Henry VIII may have been an important historical figure, but he was still a major douchebag.
they made a mistake with Anne Boleyn and Catherine of Aragon other then that it's a great show
Kylie Brockman that's what I said
Kylie Brockman
Le lady was chopped. Poor Anne but a divorce couldve been better
:(
Kitpuccino Rabbit Well, she was cheating on him like Katherine Parr. I forget the other reason why she was beheaded by a sword.
Irreligious Idiot
There was a couple reasons she was beheaded:
1:She was cheating on him
2:She gave Henry VIII a girl
3: Not only that but she made several children but none survived (except Elizabeth)
4: She had a sixth finger on her left hand- she was accused of being a witch
lisa moscrop Those other two were disproven.
They forgot Arthur Tudor, and it wasn't the end of the Tudor's family tree, only their name. Henry VII had two daughters, one of which was Margaret. Margaret had a son, who had a daughter, who had a son who was king after Elizabeth.
You mean he two sisters not daughters?
No. Avital was right. Daughters. (I know, VII and VIII look similar. I can see where you thought otherwise.)
On a side note, female line didn’t count in those days. Even more prominent when you’re the only son (by technicality in VIII’s case upon Arthur’s death).
Margaret>James V of Scotland>Mary, Queen of Scots>James VI and I of England and Scotland
Henry wasn't asking in the tudors just a prince
He carried the Tudors blood from his mother side but he was not a Tudor technically
0:42 Actually, Prince Arthur was their first son. Not Henry.
They should bring this show back.❤
This show and Road Rovers!
It’s on MeTV Toons
You think this family is sick. This is nothing compared to the Osman dynasty that ruled the Ottoman Empire. Throughout much of their history the first thing a new sultan would do is have all his male relatives murdered to prevent any rival claimants. Makes Henry VIII look like an angel.
True..but the English history are more famous and intriguing till now.
Exactly, what do you mean by "till now?"
the european kings too. The ruler's brothers and sisters just "happened" to die. Suleiman the Magnificient though let his siblings live. The crazy thing about the Ottomans is the harem
Kinda like what the Árpáds did in Hungary.
No? Mehmed IV and Sultan Selim III kept relatives alive, and the House of Osman ended when Mustafa IV seized the throne.
🏵️🪓Terrible Facts of the Terrible Tudor Era🪓🏵️ -
Anne Bolyne, Henry VIII’s 2nd wife, wasn’t beheaded by an axe. Henry arranged for her to be executed by an expert French swordsman. They reckon that Anne’s head came off so quickly her lips were still moving when they picked it up! But Anne was lucky compared with what happened to Mary Queen of Scots 50 years later. When she was executed, the executioner missed on his first go. He only nicked the side of her head. The second chop got her in the neck but it still didn’t finish her off. The executioner tried again and to be on the safe side he used the axe like a saw to take her head off. And when he picked up her head, the executioner didn’t know that Mary wore a wig. The head fell out of the wig and rolled across the platform!
Henry VIII’s son Prince Edward once lost his temper with his teacher. In his fury, he took a pet hawk pulled out its feathers and tore it in 4 pieces and said he’d like to do the same thing to his teacher!
And before he died, his fingers turned black and dropped off!
Bloody Mary was infamous for burning protestants at the stake, but sometimes she ordered to have bags of gunpowder strapped to their legs so they’d explode all over the place and be dead before they knew it!
And when the Duke of Northumberland rebelled against Mary, he was sentenced to be hanged, drawn and quartered. But the judges came up with a more horrible punishment for the Duke. They ordered the executioner to pull out his heart and throw it in his face!
A publisher called Stubbs wrote a book that dared to criticise Queen Elizabeth I, so she sentenced him to have his writing hand cut off!
The date - 7th October 1571. The place - The Gulf of Patras in the Ionian Sea near Western Greece. The event - The Naval Battle of Lepanto. The mighty Ottomans 🇹🇷 were up against the combined forces of the Spanish 🇪🇸, Italian 🇮🇹 and Maltese 🇲🇹 navies, fighting for the future of Europe. The Ottoman captain could see the enemy ships were too far away to fire a single cannonball at. So, what would he do? Wait patiently and conserve energy for the battle ahead? NO! He and his crew tried to start a dance off! Now if the Spanish captain had any sense, he would ignore the crazy Ottoman behaviour. BUT HE DIDN’T! He actually got his shipmates to dance! Soon the battle got underway and you’d think things would get serious by now, right? WRONG! One Spanish sailor got his whole hand blown off! He needed to stop the bleeding, but he couldn’t find any bandages. So he used a dead chicken as a bandage! Soon the Ottomans ran out of ammunition and the enemy ships were closing in on them. So the Ottomans used fresh fruit as makeshift cannonballs!

> British Throne
> Great Britain wasn't formed until the 1700s. Literally more than 100 years after the end of the Tudors.
+Herbivore The Carnivore The name 'Britain' for the island itself was already referred to in the 4th century BC, and has been used ever since. It is not 100% accurate, but its not wrong.
TastyBaconZ But still, if she's referring to Great Britain, there's still Scotland and possibly Wales there too.
She isnt referring to Great Britain, she only says 'The British Throne', which in that time period is, again, not 100% correct, since Scotland wasnt part of England (Wales was), but its not wrong. 'And British throne' just sounds nice than 'English throne' in the song.
+TastyBaconZ Same here man,or girl, your name doest relly give me a sense of wat gender you are. thou i asum a boy.
She wanted to get Scotland by imprisoning Queen Mary of Scots
2:28
Wives; number one and two are in the wrong place.
That poor 1603 baby at the end xD he looks so serious ready at his post and everything.
And poor baby Mary xD Henry was like "get out!!! *sees Mary cry* not the baby, you!!!" After all, Catherine was kicked out and estranged from her daughter xD funny how on a comical level it was accurate to that point.
People need to stop complaining, I think things like these are supposed to lure you to gain interest and research these things. Almost nothing but the Catherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn switched pictures are incorrect, geez guys.
Want accurate, don't be lazy and go read a history book and allow the rest of us with a sense of humour to enjoy this.
ive been watching this for days and still not bored of it
Catherine of Aragon=Divorced
Anne Boleyn=Beheaded
Jane Seymour=Died
Anne of Cleves=Divorced

I like how the one kid of the choir that looks the youngest has the deepest and creepiest (in a man from white van way creepy) voice
some people keep saying that elizabeth kicked the catholic church out. Technically she didn't, she herself was protestant but she didn't have a problem with catholics like mary. trust me, i'm english i know
Yes she did. It's just not really talked about or taught.
Ciara O'Rourke i thought Elizabeth was Anglican like her mother? even though Anne was previously a Catholic
Ciara O'Rourke well england was a katholic country before 1688 when the english people asked willem III to be thier king and bring the protestant church back.
Xander Meijer no, James II was catholic, but the country wasn ' t
Elizabeth adopted a middle way policy for catholics this meant that they were still allowed their practices and some of their own elements in the Protestant church such as stained glass and green vestments. Catholic’s were only executed for treason under Elizabeth not so called heresy like Protestants were under Mary as well as small fines for catholics who committed recusancy (not going to church) so she didn’t really mind them
The only thing they miss out on is that Henry actually had an older brother - Arthur.
That's all that's really missing.
But he did die before Henry inherited, so that might be why.
I first heard this as an audio and DEFINITELY thought it must have been an Animaniacs banned hot take - and even after seeing the animation ... it still seems like it is them ... and I can see Yakko, Wakko, and Dot as EVERY character from reoccurring monarchs to wives while Yakko sings the Greensleeves set lyrics.
Its from Histeria
I never forgot kid loudington's reiterating the wives fates. I really loved this show as a kid.
There is a musical about Henry’s 6 wife’s called the Six
I think they forgot that Henry 8 had an older brother who married Henry's first wife before Henry
Yeah, Arthur. It's strange knowing that England could have been ruled by an Arthur after all, but it wasn't to be. Imagine if Arthur had never died, we might not even have the Church of England. I think they chose not to include Arthur because he never actually had the throne.
"Must be a weird wedding i guess"
Henry VII had 3 children that matter: Arthur (Married Catherine of Aragon) Henry VIII (You know it..) Margaret (Married King Jamed IV of Scotland), Henry VIII went to be king then...the 4 monarchs...then the Stuarts but the Tudors do not end there. One of the descendants of Margaret was James VI of Scotland/James I of England which was technically Henry VIII's distant nephew.
henry vii' s youngest daughter mary mattered too! how else would jane grey have a claim to the throne?
evanbg7 Good point. But she had a really weak claim. As in a really weak one.
Forgot edmund
I love how they don't mention how Mary murdered over 300 people at the stake but are more than happy to say that Henry had two of his wives beheaded
Henry beheaded 10,000 people while Elizabeth had about 700 people executed in the course of her reign.
@@barbiquearea and Mary?
@@hamishmacfleetwood5229 Mary executed nowhere near the amount of people as her father and sister
@@baileygr2008, Elizabeth’s reign lasted 45 years however whilst Mary only lasted 5.
@@joeyjerry1586 Still, 300 people over a 5 year rate is nothing, even if she did rule 45 years she probably wouldn’t have killed as many people
"Divorced, beheaded, died! Divorced, beheaded, survived!" .....Is this where Horrible Histories got the idea? (Horrible Histories also had a segment called Terrible Tudors.)
3fatkid British children have used this to help them remember the fate of Henry's wives for many, many years. I don't know how far back it goes and who came up with it, but it was a long time ago.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who realized the first two wives on the poster are mixed up. 😛
Mary I Tudor was the first alive daughter of Catalina (Catherine) of Aragon and Henry VIII. Catalina (Catherine) of Aragon had three good friends in England: Thomas Moore, Erasmo of Rotterdam and one sister of Henry VIII. One of his friends in Spain was Juan Luis Vives, a christian intelectual coming from a jewish family.
If I may continue "But England's reign had to go on, so they picked a Scot King and made him James 1"
He thought himself heaven sent, to which the people didn't consent. When poor James went off to heaven, his young son too thought he was heaven sent. Charles I soon plunged England into civil war, he lost his kingdom and so much more. Then came Cromwell and his reign of terror. Twas upon Cromwell's death the people said they had enough and brought Charles II back. When Charles died he was followed by another James. Once again a James did rule, but didn't know what to do. In 1688 James II was overthrown and William of Orange was offered the Throne
@snakes3425 Can you go on after that or not?
3:33 Most hilarious line in this whole thing
I miss this show, it's the reason I'm such a history nerd to this day.
What is the name of this show?
@@benjad92 it's called "Histeria!"
I thought it was Animaniacs but I see it's from the studio and some animators
They don't make shows like this anymore. It's a bit of a shame.
Not enough Anime Ninja Girls, sadly
I remember seeing this cartoon as a kid on Kids WB at my grandparents' house.
Who else but me is addicted to this
Me
ME
I feel like the cartoon over-exaggerates Anna of Cleves’ appearance. She actually did look fair, not like model material, obviously, but when Henry showed up, he thought that it’d be like she’d recognize him from the get-go, like in a fairytale. But being from Germany, she didn’t know many stories, and Henry was enraged on her appearance not looking much like a princess turned queen, mostly due to the fact that the painter Hans Holbein the Younger exaggerated her beauty. Anna of Cleves wasn’t ugly, she just didn’t quite live up to Henry’s expectations.
2:30 Animation error: The 1st and 2nd wives flipped.
Who noticed that Catherine Aragon and Anne Boleyn Where swapped in the review of henrys wives? like if u did!

Yeah he went there
I always thought a handmaiden was just a servant, so I thought it weird his 2nd wife was a “commoner”. But for the Queen her handmaidens were women of noble birth, so all his wives were noble women
um at 2:25 wasn't the girl in red the one he divorce
Neat Gamer probably a goof
Yup
Yup
Big part of my childhood. Thanks for the upload!
0:48 in the beginning of Henry the eighth was actually fit. And not fat. He only started gaining weight right before he divorce his first wife. It was a combination of adjusting accident that’s where he started actually gaining weight.
Why was the arrangement of the 6 wives started with Anne Boleyn then Catherine of Aragon.
Also, they made it sound like Anne of Cleves is a horse with the line "Anne came from fine German stock"
I hate to point this out, but it really bothered me even as a kid:Father time and Loud kid are out of sync, pointing to the wrong wives in the break. It should be:Beheaded, Divorced, diedThe second batch is correct
+Marc Rizkalla
The problem is that they switched wife 1 and wife 2 :/
+Marc Rizkalla he divorced the 1st wife, beheaded the second and the third died on her own. The he divorced number 4, beheaded number 5 and number 6 outlived him.
Actually, neither the first or fourth wives were divorced. Their marriages were annulled, instead.
ImSophIGuess According to Papist Church. But the Church of England granted Henry VIII his divorce.
Marc Rizkalla
When that kid yelled divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived they actually put Anne Boelyn and Catherine Of Aragon in the wrong places.
what a way to study history
Great song, but Anne Boleyn was beheaded with a sword, not with an axe. Henry VIII even brought an expert executioner from France to England for her execution.
xlsfd exactly, apparently Anne was terrified of axes
No it was an axe
Breon McRae yep they got wrong order
Never mind it was a sword
Asia Raven Brook Pettus Wasn't Anne's reasoning for the sword because a sword was clean and swift versus an axe taking many strikes to get the head off the neck?
The tune of the song is Greensleeves. It is rumored that Henry the 8th wrote it for his second wife Anne Boleyn.
I thought this was catchy growing up. But watching this now as a history major, there are so many things wrong with this song and the events portrayed it’s hard to watch.
You know this is a really underrated show
what is iy called?
@@StillLaurasideaoffun “histeria!”
never get this in germany, sadly
At 2:17, the first picture and the second picture of Henry’s wives are mix up.
"The pope refused to grant a divorce."
Specifically Pope Paul III.
I hate it when people think Anne of Cleves was ugly. She wasn't she just did not know how to play henry's games.
1:02 An uncharacteristically glum Pepper.
Rgoid I guess Pepper Mills was glum :(
Fun Facts:
0:48 Henry wasn't fat yet he actually had an incredibly fit body
0:51 Henry's brother Edward was supposed to be king and marry Catherine but died after his marriage which Henry took place and married his brother's widow (which the bible says leads to childlessness)
0:56 Henry actually tried to get his daughter Marry to wed Charles the V (Henry's cousin) though it was denied
1:07 it wasn't that the Pope refused but Charles prevented the Pope from doing much and the priest he sent to deal with the problem was too old to do anything
1:28 Anne was executed due to charges of Adultery with a musician and making fun of Henry's P***s

"The British throne is mine mine mine" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's a historical Quote
(na, just kidding)
They forgot Arthur who married Catherine of Aragon first, they also messed up the divorced beheaded died divorced beheaded survived, but other that that its a good song
Not to mention, Henry and Catherine of Aragon's marriage was initially a happy one. It's only when their daughter Mary was born after a series of miscarriages and stillbirths that Henry's eye started to wander.
1:44
Is that supposed to be Anne of Cleves or Sarah Jessica Parker?
We had to watch this in history class yesterday 😂
Lol
Oh really? I could've gone crazed...
3:26 Elizabeth is about to tell me I can power a car using 2 magnets facing each other
King Henry the VIII is losing wives faster than me when I see my grades
1:08 The man was too stunned to speak + Flabbergasted
Time to correct:
Firstly the obvious the pictures of Anne Boleyn and Catherine of Aragon are the wrong way round,
secondly Richard the Third did not lose his kingdom for want of a horse that was added by Shakespeare of course! (Horrible Histories Reference),
Thirdly Henry was raised in Eltham Palace not a Castle and finally Mary Tudor should have said English throne as British still applied to the Native Britons (Welsh, Cumbrians, Cornish) until the Acts of Union 1707 when it was to be applied to all inhabitants of the Island, to be fair though since I live in Britain I have learnt this from a very young age.
My favorite line is this
"the British throne is mine mine mine." - mary 1.
I love that song.They should do a song about the Hannoverians and the Habsburgs of Austria.
2:51 who expected him to have such a deep voice? He looks 6
