Plot
In 1483, King Richard III establishes himself as king of England after the mysterious disappearance of his nephews in the Tower Of London. Belief that Richard may have been behind the disappearance of the boys lead to civil war and increased insecurity in England, as Richard would execute believers of that theory. Henry Tudor arrives in England and works in a conspiracy with a bunch of disaffected Yorkists and Lancasters, led by Richard's former ally the Duke of Buckingham, promising to remove Richard and marry Elizabeth Of York to create unity in England. At first, they try to stage a coup to remove Richard but failed and the Duke of Buckingham would be executed and Henry would flee back to France. Henry would succeed a second time due to funding from France with troops and equipment for a second invasion. Though outnumbered, Henry's forces decisively defeated Richard's  army at the Battle of Bosworth Field, with Richard's key allies switched sides and joined Henry.

Henry would declare by law that he is king by right of conquest, and Richard's supporters would be guilty of treason and would take land and property once owned by Richard III.Henry would have Parliament declare Edward IV's marriage valid and his children legitimate, thus legitimising his wife and allowing her to be married.He would then marry Elizabeth Of York and united the houses of York and Lancaster, creating a new house- the House Of Tudor. He would start by improving tax collections and having Baron Dynham and the Earl of Surrey as Lord High Treasurers creating financial stability.

But soon Edward, Earl of Warwick, the ten-year-old son of Edward IV's brother George, Duke of Clarence, appeared as a dissenter to the throne. Henry would have the boy locked in the Tower Of London as well as numerous other rebellions, including a rebellion lead by the Stafford Brothers and another in support of Lambert Simnel, a boy they claimed to be one of the nephews that disappeared, but would be pardoned and he made the boy, Simnel, a servant in the royal kitchen.

A few years passed and Henry would have his oldest son, Arthur marry Catherine Of Aragon, the daughter of the Spanish king and queen Isabella and Ferdinand to create peace between Spain and England. The marriage is considered a success and peace is created between the two kingdoms.

The movie ends with Henry looking at and his collecting his coins reflecting on the high amount of revenue and power his dynasty would have.
