Edward VI became King at the age of 9. This meant that there was a Regency Council,
with leading nobles competing for positions of influence and power. Edward Seymour,
Duke of Somerset, quickly took charge. He was replaced in 1549 by the Duke of
Northumberland until Edward’s death in 1553. Throughout the 6 years of Edward’s
reign there were problems over religious reform, economic problems arising from
price rises and from enclosure of land and worries over foreign policy.

 The powers of the monarchy – in particular, problems of maintaining them
effectively.
 Problems over relationships with foreign powers, especially Spain.
 Securing the succession when the country was divided over religion and with
rival families.
 Changes in English society, especially concerning the economy.
 Intellectual and religious ideas changing and developing, leading to challenges
to the monarch and the Church.

religion and in society?

problems which it faced in the years 1529 to 1553?

 ‘England was a Protestant country by 1553’. Assess the validity of this view.
 ‘The Church in England had become Protestant by 1549’. Assess the validity of

political problems than Somerset?
