The Tudor rebellions under Henry VII marked significant challenges to his reign, with five major uprisings occurring between 1486 and 1497. These rebellions varied in scale and threat level, from the small-scale Lovell and Stafford rebellion to the more substantial Cornish rebellion that saw 15,000 rebels march on London.
• The period witnessed two notable pretender rebellions: Lambert Simnel and Perkin Warbeck, both supported by Yorkist sympathizers
• The Yorkshire tax revolt of 1489 emerged from economic grievances rather than dynastic concerns
• Most rebellions were ultimately unsuccessful due to limited local support and Henry VII's effective response
• The rebellions led to various administrative changes, including the strengthening of the Tudor Council of the North
• International support, particularly from Margaret of Burgundy, played a crucial role in sustaining some rebellions
