People in the Tudor times thought King John was a good king as he stood up to the pope / church. People in Victorian times believed John to be a bad king because of his attitude to religion but they based this on gossip not facts.
King John's reign has been the subject of, sometimes heated, debates since the 16th century. Historians have periodic revisions on the subject since that time. King John has been viewed by some as a hard working king and outstanding general, while others have viewed him as cruel, spiteful, and petty.
Tudors can hardly be called modern, since the last Tudor/Elizabethan monarch died in AD 1603. Henry VIII was rich because his father, Henry VII, had managed to save a lot of money.

Before the Tudors came into power at the Battle Of Bosworth Hill, King Richard III was Plantagenet, as were the kings before him. When the Tudors came into power, they were fairly merciful; while they killed the male heir to the Plantagenet throne, they did not decimate the line- Lady Margaret Pole was the last Plantagenet princess, who was allowed to live in peace in a small Tudor castle on the border of Wales. The Wars of the Roses was a conflict between the Houses of York & Lancaster, which was decided at Bosworth in 1485. Henry VII was Henry Tudor. The Plantagenets.
