Q

how successful was Henry’s foreign policies

A
  • Henry’s foreign policy was largely successful when considered in regards to his aims - although there were weaknesses in his economic foreign policy this was the intention of Henry, as within his foreign policy the economy lay subordinate to more demanding aims such as national security.
  • Although, the caveats of the depleting success of Henry’s policy over his rule and perhaps only surface level victory slightly limit Henry’s success.
25
Q

national security SUCCESS surface leve

A

France:-1492 Treaty of Étaples - perkin warbeck → no aid to rebels / Charles pre-occupied w/ Italian disputes + expanding their empire
Scotland:
-assassination James III Battle Sauchieburn 1488- james IV king - no threat
→ Henry’s against france annexing brittany 1491 = tighten relations due to 1295 historic auld alliance
-Treaty Ayton, finalised by death warbeck 1499 = first peace treaty since 1328
HOWEVER - Henry unable to suppress France in Brittany crisis - french annexation gave control of channel + invasion base
Therefore potential threat lurked beneath surface level success but never erupted = SUCCESS

26
Q

P2 - securing dynasty

- SUCCESS

A

1489 Medina Del Campo
→ recognition form rising european power
CA- perkin warbeck parading around europe portrayed weakness - catherine did not arrive until 1501 - shows ferdinand questioned Henry’s credibility
-death arthur - weaken agrmt.castilian inheritance dispute - henry favours phillip burgundy - agrmt. Survived but on lose ends
Success w/ Edmund De La Pole:
1506 storm = phillip burgundy take refuge + Mallas Intercursus signed -de la pole
w/ real claim to throne

Improved security - but one storm away from dynastic collapse

27
Q

P3 - economic - subordinate to security

A

-Success varied as it lay subordinate to national security
-example contrasting side of Perkin Warbeck
→ to reference previous point - Treaty of Etaples - french pension amounts to 5% royal income
However - etaples only to suppress warbeck + trade agrmt ame alongside if
Finances were sacrificed at expense national security e.g.
–>trade embargo on Phillip Burgundy in perkin warbeck too 1493-96

28
Q

IMPORTANT NOTE: last years 1503-09 saw weakening position

A

after elizabeth and arthur’s death - many marriage agrmt.s failed for henry w/. European powers
-HOWEVER- Italian conflict involving france meant england have little threat at end of reign → perhaps England’s lack of superiority in europe = decreased threat
