furthermore I would like to point out that the persecutions really began only after Wyatt's revolt and the formalization of his marriage with Philip ( who personally was against the murder of even ordinary people, was more inclined to eradicate the leadership of these movements ( therefore people like Cranmer ) and then work with the church to bring the poor deviated from them back into Catholic orthodoxy ) then in 1555 ( also her first aborted "pregnancy" escalated matters, because she was sincerely convinced it was divine punishment ( l I would add yet another ) so extraordinary bloodiest or too pro-Spanish she wasn't, she became that way due to the traumas and abuses she suffered in her youth due to her father
and I absolutely confirm what Kellan said about Elisabeth, she was no less bloodthirsty, but only more cunning, passing off a mere religious persecution as justice, using the excuse of the violation of the act of supremacy which made anyone a traitor ( case strange that they were mostly Catholics eh ! )
even if paradoxically extending their lives of Henry by a few years ( 1 ), can help the Catholic faction ( above all the imposition of the prayer book in Cornwall of Otl is avoided ) because it would weaken the Protestant part which under Edward made important and radical steps forward, drastically changing the Henrician church
1 ) Unfortunately, of course, the ones who will lose out will be Catherine Parr and another poor woman who perhaps will succeed him, I would say until 1551 ( the year in which there was yet another sweat epidemic ) so father and son were taken away and Mary ascended the throne two years earlier and from here things can get a little interesting ( which can affect the last Italian war, the Destiny of Calais, the Council of Trent, the League of Smalcanda, the Peace of Augsburg etc )
