Henry VII wasn't a particularly bad king. He made merry, put on a good sow, and led his troops into battle as any good king should. However, especially in his later life, Henry VII put himself above all others. He wasted English money on lavish weddings and gifts for his wives, and risked war in the diplomatic displacement/ beheading of each of them. He didnt terrorize his country or anything, but he was a bit greedy.

A monarch is a king or queen. The Tudors were a dynasty of English Kings and Queens that ruled from 1485-1603; they were King Henry VII, King Henry VIII, King Edward VI, Queen Mary I, and Queen Elizabeth I.
In 1509 Henry became king of England.
Henry the fourth
Before the Tudors were the Plantagenets. The last Plantagenet king was Richard III. The first Tudor king was Henry II. Shakespeare wrote a play about Richard III, which showed him as a villain. Scholars nowadays think that might have been a bit of propaganda because he was writing for a Tudor Queen (Elizabeth).
The king when the Compact was signed was James Stuart, James I of England and Ireland and James VII of Scotland.
