Evidence Lovell rebellion was a threat ?
- Loyal supporters of richard III, Timing- so early on in reign (clearly not content with henry as a ruler) and could've affected royal progress tour
8 of 19
Evidence Lovell rebellion wasn't a threat ?
-Plan failed, henry heard and met with armed force, offered choice of reconciliation or excommunication and death, rebels dispersed, didn't affect progress tour winning loyalty.
9 of 19
Evidence Simnel rebellion was a threat?
- Year within seizing throne, Raised foreign support (Oxford and Ireland)- crowned Edward VI of Ireland, Support from margaret of burgundy- sent money + 2000 mercenaries, Henry not aware until 1487, Forced King into battle and could've gone either wa
10 of 19
Evidence Simnel wasn't a threat?
Paraded real Earl of Warwick in London to prove Simnel = imposter, Rebels failed to gain widespread support when marched south, H won final battle at Stoke
11 of 19
Evidence Yorkshire rebellion was a threat?
- Annoyed by subsidy tax for pol, bad harvest + defending border, Locally no support for tax either, Earl of Northumberland murdered, Yorkist support- Sir J Egremont and money wasn't collected as a compromise
12 of 19
Evidence Yorkshire wasn't a threat?
H refused to negotiate, murder of royal official= not uncommon, Rising easily crushed by royal army, H appointed Earl of Surrey as rep in North- securing loyalty.
13 of 19
Evidence Warbeck rebellion was a threat?
International agreement, (Fr+ Burg) - diplomatic pressure on England from Burg- H forced to end cloth trade, Yorkist claims Warbeck= Richard D of York, gaining support from Fr + HRE Max, also support from James IV who sent over 1500 troops to invade,
14 of 19
Evidence Warbeck rebellion wasn't a threat?
W unable to win support from Ireland, signing of treaty of Etaples lessened Fr threat, HRE= more concerned with It wars, H's spies discovered plot, H passed attainders against plotters, Local militia easily defeated W, lack of support from N Eng
15 of 19
Evidence Cornish rebellion was a threat?
Same reasons as yorkshire- more serious, Scottish support, threat from James IV, No.'s increased through Somerset, 15000 rebels, 12 years into H's reign= still limited
16 of 19
Evidence Cornish rebellion wasn't a threat?
Little support from Devon, little noble support, support declined near London (afraid), H crushed rebels with army of 25000 at Blackheath, Leaders tortured + executed
17 of 19
Evidence De La Pole rebellion was a threat?
Closest yorkist claimant after E of W, dissatisfied with H as not made D of Suffolk, Threat as henrys son dying in 1502, Security of succession still debated as lasted so long
18 of 19
Evidence De La Pole rebellion wasn't a threat?
Fled to Fr in 1499 and again in 1501, H passed 51 acts of attainder in 1504 against rebellion, not too seriously challenged
