What was the Regency Council?
The body set up under the terms of Henry VIII's will to exercise power during the minority reign
of Edward VI. It was soon set aside by the personal rule of Somerset's protectorate
-it comprised of 16 members and a further 12
-balanced between protestants and conservatives
What evidence suggests the government was fearful for good order and security?
-Cranmer's homily (published reading) on obedience was read in parish churches
-clergy were required to reinforce that obedience to the authority of the king was in accordance
with the will of god; disobedience was therefore a mortal sin

-his arrogant and dictatorial manner
What events dictated the religious character of Northumberland's regime?
-the purging of conservatives Southampton and Arundel
-Cranmer's support
-The King's increasingly assertive Protestantism
How did Northumberland act when he first defeated Somerset?
-He did not attempt to re-establish a protectorate as he was anxious to avoid the excessive
concentration of power that had brought Somerset down.

was then excluded from decision making, for more effective operation
, How did Northumberland react to Somerset's attempt at a counter coup?
He attempted to become less conciliar in his approach to government, behaving in the way
Somerset had before he was removed
-presumed enemies removed from the privy council
-gained possession of the dry stamp affix the King's signature to documents
Why did Northumberland not want Mary to succeed?
It was obvious that if Mary were to come to the throne, Catholicism would be restored.
Northumberland had enthusiastically supported a more radical form of Protestantism and would
hence be ruined and his life would be in danger.
What was Northumberland's plan to alter the succession?
Devyse

-underestimated cooperation between Scotland and France. French relief of Edinburgh and
control of Mary who was taken to France to marry the French heir
What were the consequences of the failure of foreign policy on Somerset?
He engaged in military strategies that were unaffordable at a time of great financial pressure,
failed to achieve his political objective and threatened war with France due to their deteriorating
relationship when he was his most vulnerable
What were the relations with foreign powers under Northumberland ?
-ended war with France and Scotland
-Treaty of Bolougne with France 1550
