Answer 2

HENRY VIII: Responsible for the Reformation in England and founded the Church of England with himself as its supreme head. He also:

- promoted parliamentary government by extending representation and expanding the privileges of both Houses

enhanced standing of the monarchy and helped create a new sense of national identity

- overhauled machinery of the state, introducing progressive and efficient taxation schemes

- created the most magnificent court in English history

patronised arts to lasting effect and popularised the art of portraiture

- built or remodelled 70 palaces and erected fortresses along the south coast

- was first English king to authorise the translation of the Bible into English

He changed the heart, mind and face of Britain more than anything between the coming of the Normans and the factory age. In the reigns of his children, Edward VI, Mary I and Elizabeth I, his legend became embedded in the national consciousness, and "Great Harry" was especially lauded for having rescued the English Church from the tyranny of Rome. Today, historians recognise that his reign contributed an extraordinary legacy - modern Britain. Henry began his reign in a mediaeval kingdom; he ended it in what was effectively a modern state. We are still living in the England of Henry VIII.

Queen Victoria was the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain during the middle of the18th century. Her reign was known as the Great Victorian era. Though Victoria ascended the throne at a time when the United Kingdom was already an established constitutional monarchy in which the king or queen held few political powers, she still served as a very important symbolic figure of her time. The Victorian era represented the height of the Industrial Revolution, a period of significant social, economic, and technological progress in the United Kingdom. Victoria's reign was marked by a great expansion of the British Empire; during this period it reached its zenith, becoming the foremost global power of the time.
