This unit could form part of the study of Tudors alongside Units 7 and 8. The unit builds on others that have focused on exploration and settlement, eg Units 6A, 6B and 6C and Units 11 and 12, which cover the Romans, Saxons and Vikings and the Victorian period. It sets the context for other aspects of the history of Tudor times by providing the background for a study of the Armada and relations with Spain, and ways of life in town and country. There are many profitable links to be made with geography, particularly the theme of settlement.
