The first part deals with the Tudors and their response to empire in Spain (as well as the Spanish Armada). The second part deals with England&#8217;s (and later Britain&#8217;s) establishment of its own empire in North America and India. It then concludes with the Seven Years&#8217; War and the American Revolution.<\/p>\n<p>Ten Minute History is a series of short, ten minute animated narrative documentaries that are designed as revision refreshers or simple introductions to a topic. Please note that these are not meant to be comprehensive and there&#8217;s a lot of stuff I couldn&#8217;t fit into the episodes that I would have liked to. Thank you for watching, though, it&#8217;s always appreciated.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot_2019-09-30-Ten-Minute-History-\u2013-The-Early-British-Empire.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot_2019-09-30-Ten-Minute-History-\u2013-The-Early-British-Empire-480x270.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-51391\" srcset=\"https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot_2019-09-30-Ten-Minute-History-\u2013-The-Early-British-Empire-480x270.png 480w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot_2019-09-30-Ten-Minute-History-\u2013-The-Early-British-Empire-150x84.png 150w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot_2019-09-30-Ten-Minute-History-\u2013-The-Early-British-Empire-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot_2019-09-30-Ten-Minute-History-\u2013-The-Early-British-Empire-853x480.png 853w, https:\/\/quotulatiousness.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot_2019-09-30-Ten-Minute-History-\u2013-The-Early-British-Empire.png 930w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>History Matters Published on 26 Sep 2016 Twitter: https:\/\/twitter.com\/Tenminhistory Patreon: https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/user?u=4973164 This episode of Ten Minute History (like a documentary, only shorter) covers the birth and rise of the British Empire from the reign of Henry VII all the way to the American Revolution.
