46 - Jane Seymour (2): The Pacific Peacemaker

Coming to the throne hours after the execution of Anne Boleyn, the new queen Jane Seymour found herself in a far weaker position than that of her predecessors. That said, she was not entirely content to just be a babymaker.

The Other Half

Women make up half of the world's population, and yet history books often consign them to the sidelines. They are dismissed as merely the wives of powerful men; babymakers and nothing more. Yet women have been the driving force behind history for millennia, from female Pharoahs, warrior princesses and pirates, to the revolutionaries who sought to topple the male-dominated political systems of their day. From host of the popular 'Queens of England Podcast', The Other Half tells the forgotten and ignored stories of the most powerful and influential women in history.
