Tudors

The Tudors ruled Britain for just over a century. During that time, they made Britain a world power, laying the foundations of the British Empire. t was a time of great contrasts. While some explorers sailed the world, most people never went beyond the next town. It was the age of Shakespeare but most people could not read. Henry VIII had 55 palaces and Elizabeth I had 3000 gowns but beggars were whipped and even hanged.
