In which year did Henry VIII die?

Henry VIII’s death year tests your knowledge of the Tudor timeline. He ruled from 1509 until his death in 1547, so the year that marks the end of his reign is 1547. After his death, his son Edward VI became king as a minor, with a regency. The other years fall in different reigns or periods: 1557 is during Mary I’s reign, 1567 during Elizabeth I’s, and 1647 is long after the Tudor era, during the English Civil War.
