I thought Abraham Lincoln was the first president of the US until I was like 13 (we don't learn american history here) I also thought every song had a music video till I was 12 Wait, he wasn't?Eek. They really need to stop teaching me about the Tudors, there's obviously a lot more history than 'oh this guy was fAT'. George washington was the first president Tudors???

British history. The Tudor family were the kings and queens of England for quite a while, and ruled with something of an iron fist. Henry VII- First Tudor king. Ended the War of the Roses by marrying someone from the other side of the feud. Henry VIII- Was less political or successful than his dad, but was somewhat 'glamourous'. He was athletic in his youth but got obese and died around age 50 from it. He had six wives. Edward- (forgotten his number) Henry's sickly son, became king as a young teen and died by the time he reached 17 years of age. Mary I- Edward's older half sister. She was fiercely Protestant, and murdered hundreds of Catholic people for their beliefs. Elizabeth I- Mary's younger half-sister, known as the 'Virgin Queen' because she refused to marry and give up her politicsl power. She was less fussed with religion than her sister, and so stopped the Catholic killing. However, she was just as fierce as her father Henry VIII. She was the last Tudor queen because she had no children.
