Tudor London can be described as a _prosperous_ city during the Tudor dynasty. In fact, the population increased from _75000_ inhabitants with Henry VII to _200000_ at the end of the 16th century.
The Tudor monarchs had a royal residence in London called _Whitehall_ and another in the countryside,called _Hampton court_, after _Cardinal Wolsey_ gave it to Henry VIII.These Tudor kings and queens used what are now famous parks , such as _Hyde Park_ or _St. James' Park_, as Royal hunting forests.
Not many Tudor buildings survive today, mostly because of _The Great Fire_ , which happened in _1666_. Besides, , the 13 religious houses in London were _converted for private use_ or _pulled down for building materials_ after the Dissolution of the monasteries, which was _Henry VIII most decisive step agains the power of the church in 1538_.
Apart from that, the theatres were banned from the city by _the city authorities or guilts_ because _plays wasted workmen's time_. Then, they were built in _the southwark_, where now a reconstruction of the _Globe_ can be visited to learn about Tudor theatre.
At that time, London's financial rival was the city of _Amsterdam_, and to be able to compete with it , the _international exchange_ was created in _1566_.
So, all in all, and because of many other events and facts, we can say that both London and England were _powerfull about Tudors theatre_.
