Now Blooms the Tudor Rose	comment	Henry VIII, the King of England, wanted nothing more than continue his family line by siring a male heir. But his wife, Catherine of Aragon, was proving very uncooperative. Their only child to survive infancy was a daughter, Mary; Henry was able to father a son with one of his mistresses, but he was illegitimate and could not inherit the throne.Eventually, a clever, charming, and manipulative young courtier named Anne Boleyn caught his eye. Henry had already bedded her older sister, but Anne was more prudish; she would not sleep with him unless and until they were married. For that to happen, Henry would have to end his marriage to Catherine. Thus began what history remembers as his "Great Matter".For various reasons, The Pope would not grant Henry an annulment from his wife, so he decided to separate from the Church and declare himself Supreme Head in order to do so. Anyone who stood in the way was summarily dealt with, and Henry married Anne and made her his Queen. All along, she had promised that she would give him the son he desperately wanted.In 1533, Anne gave birth to a girl.This was the beginning of the end for Anne; the profound stress of failing to live up to the demands of one of the most petulant and impatient men in history resulted in all of her subsequent pregnancies ending in miscarriage. Henry quickly tired of her, and she, too, was executed just three years after they were married. Henry, of course, went on to remarry four more times, having a grand total of one son. Their daughter eventually became Queen and went on to reign over a Golden Age.But, of course, anyone with the tiniest piece of knowledge of English History knows this. However, what we do not know is this: what if, instead of Elizabeth, Anne had given birth to a boy?This is the question that "Now Blooms The Tudor Rose", written by Space Oddity (also known as troper "Rhialto"), attempts to answer. Among the highlights? Henry and Anne have five children (including three sons), all but one of whom live to adulthood; Queen Anne takes a very active role in the English government; and the religious and political balance of Europe is already driven way off-course by mid-century.There's a lot of heavy material (the 16th century was certainly no picnic in Real Life either), but the tone is kept fairly light and breezy thanks to the Deadpan Snarker narration and the strong focus on Character Development and interaction.

Now Blooms the Tudor Rose / int_15395adc	type	The Mistress
Now Blooms the Tudor Rose / int_15395adc	comment	The Mistress: Quite a few monarchs, rulers, and men of note have them. Most notably, Henry II of France leans heavily on both his first mistress, Diane de Poitiers, and his second, Francoise de Enghien, while Ferdinand II of Austria practically views Philippine Welser as a second wife. But averted by the man who in our reality is known as one of the famous philanderers in England, Henry VIII, once he finally weds Anne Boleyn. He tries to hook up with Jane Seymour as he did in our history, but Anne puts the kibosh on that and, as she is the mother of his son and heir, the King reluctantly accedes. Also averted by Henry IX, who is often described as far less experienced with women than he lets on, and never has any serious dalliances during his bachelorhood, to the point that he might even still be a virgin by the time he finally marries Mary, Queen of Scots, at the age of 26 (giving him something in common with his historical sister). This is actually in keeping with the men of his dynasty, apart from his father.

Now Blooms the Tudor Rose / int_1994ba0b	type	Gone Horribly Right
Now Blooms the Tudor Rose / int_1994ba0b	comment	Gone Horribly Right: In an attempt to encourage the Irish to turn Protestant, Queen Anne has the Bible and The Life of Luther translated into Gaelic and sold in Ireland. As a result, many Irish do turn Protestant — but instead of becoming Anglican, they turn to Irish Originalism, a sect that is even more strongly opposed to English rule in Ireland. (The translator of The Life of Luther was Donal o Fearghail.) Similarly, Anne's daughter Elizabeth, who fancies herself The Chessmaster in the making, convinces her younger sister Margaret to marry Janos Zapolya, the Prince of Transylvania, in hopes of securing outside support for her bid to make her husband, Elector John Frederick of Saxony, the next Holy Roman Emperor. The HRE then gets embroiled in a long and complicated war of succession, which allows Janos to consolidate enough support with Hungarians to be crowned their King over the Hapsburg candidate - this means that Margaret, as Queen of Hungary, now outranks the "mere" Electress of Saxony in the customary order of precedence, and there's still no guarantee that Elizabeth will become the Empress.

Now Blooms the Tudor Rose / int_38f1a7ed	comment	Defector from Decadence: Prince Henri of Valois, Duke of Orleans, by primogeniture the rightful heir to the throne of France, whose place in the line of succession becomes disputed when it becomes clear that he is a Huguenot. He flees the royal court in Paris into the bosom of his coreligionists, and is officially removed from the succession by the Estates-General in 1563. Against the advice of his more pragmatic supporters (and unlike his Real Life cousin, Henri IV) he refuses to renounce his Protestantism for a chance at the throne. Likewise, Prince Andrei Kurbski flees Ivan's court to serve the very Poles he's been fighting because he can no longer stand the madness. And sends Ivan a letter telling him that.

Now Blooms the Tudor Rose / int_7eebe99c	comment	The Alcoholic: Quite a few, as drinking habits during the Renaissance were generally poor. Among the most prominent... Suleiman's son Prince Selim (in both timelines he became known as "Selim the Sot"), though he demonstrates that he's still quite a dangerous man despite that. John William of Saxony's pastimes include "trying to drink the sad away." And "drinking the happy better." Frederick II of Denmark's frequent drinking likely plays a part in his rather poor decisions.

Now Blooms the Tudor Rose / int_c6695a49	comment	Mêlée à Trois: The aging Suleiman the Magnificent, in the twilight of his reign, wants to get involved in the Second Schmalkaldic War as a chance to resume their stalled expansion into Europe and seek a rematch with the Hapsburgs. The Second Schmalkaldic War itself shifts from being a war between the Emperor and the Elector of Saxony and a war between three different factions within the Empire relatively early in the fight.

After Henry and Mary's marriage, Charles Stuart becomes this to the entire British monarchy, upgrading his claims, while remaining a lightweight.

The HRE then gets embroiled in a long and complicated war of succession, which allows Janos to consolidate enough support with Hungarians to be crowned their King over the Hapsburg candidate - this means that Margaret, as Queen of Hungary, now outranks the "mere" Electress of Saxony in the customary order of precedence, and there's still no guarantee that Elizabeth will become the Empress.
