The doctrinal changes made by Edward VI during his reign had a lot of political and economic significance, however these changes had the biggest impact on religion in England and Wales and they particularly had much long term significance.
RELIGION - Fundamental reason
- Changes led to protestant belief by conviction rather than habit.
Changes under the Duke of Somerset
- Printing restrictions removed - meaning more protestant propaganda could be printed and spread around the country - thus more people would understand protestant beliefs.
- Act of Uniformity - everyone had to use the same prayer book (in English not latin) - establishing a vernacular service.
