Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Henry had asked Pope Clement VII for his marriage to Catherine to be dissolved, but the Pope would not agree. Part of the reason that the Pope refused was because Charles V, the Holy Roman Emperor, had taken control of Rome-and Charles V was Catherine’s nephew.
Detailed explanation-2: -Athletic, musical, a poet. Ruthless, arrogant, passionate. Henry’s driving desire for a male heir was to lead him to divorce two wives and have two wives beheaded: it led to religious revolution and the creation of the Church of England, the Dissolution of the Monasteries and the Reformation.
