Britain Under The Reign Of The Tudors And Stuarts Was A Country Marked By Extraordinary And Dramatic Change. These Are The Centuries Of The Reformation, Civil Wars, And Two Revolutions; A Time Of Upheaval That Saw Two Monarchs, Two Wives Of A King, And Two Archbishops Of Canterbury Tried And Executed; And A Time Of Religious Controversy That Resulted In The Torture Or Burning Of Hundreds Of Ordinary People. But This Was Also The Time That Marked The Emergence Of Britain As The Most Liberal And Mature Of European States, A Politically Significant Era Where Monarchs Based In Southeast England Imperfectly Sought To Extend Their Authority Over The Whole Of The British Archipelago.
