The story of the Tudor family is one of the first true soap operas. Filled with love, lust and loyalty, the reign of the Tudors shaped the history of England. The Tudor dynasty was founded in 1485 under King Henry VII, marking the end of the War of the Roses. Henry VII, his son Henry VIII, and his three children Edward VI, Mary, and Elizabeth, ruled for 118 dynamic years.
