The Renaissance!.!.!.!.rather than knowledge being the provenance of the Church, it was returned to the secular population!. Revival of classical knowledge and a revival of investigation in science, medicine, etc that wasn't limited by its opposition to the Christian views!.
Henry VII!.!.!.united the Lancaster's and the York's!. Founded the Tudor dynasty!.
Henry VIII!.!.!.!.broke with the Church of Rome!. Founder of the Church of England!. No doubt, having been the first English monarch educated in the Renaissance, it had a profound influence on his thinking!.

Henry VII, Married the daughter of Edward IV to legitamise his shakey claim to the throne, founder of the Tudor dynasty!.
Henry VIII, broke from the Catholic Church in order to divorce his first wife Cathrine Aragon, best known for his six marrages!.
Mary, also known as "Bloody Mary" because of her violent tatics in trying to return England to the Catholic church!.
Elizabeth I, She is a hard one to lock down as lots happened during her reign, but not always because that's what she wanted!. For example the Spanish Armada lost more by the English good luck than good management by the English!. Drake was after booty more than a Naval victory, and in the end he got both!.
James I also James VI of Scotland, well England and Scotland finally united, (perhaps not as the English would have prefered) and of course the publication of the King James Bible!.
Charles I, Cause of the English Civil War, due to the fact that he thought he ruled by Devine Right!. I think he was the only English King to loose his head as a Trator to his own country!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
