Henry VIII basically created the Anglican faith-out of convenience.  He needed his divorce and creating his own church (with himself as its head) he saw his way out of his problems (ie Catherine of Aragon) and he also saw his way into quite a lot of property and riches (from the dismantling of the churches, monasteries etc.)\nEdward VI continued where his father left off, but with a more spiritual view and less land grabbing...remember, he was only a kid, but a precocious, sermonizing little brat at the same time.\nMary Tudor (I'll assume you're speaking of Bloody Mary, not Henry VIII little sister) was a staunch catholic only exceeded in her exuberance by her mother Catherine of Aragon.  She made it her mission to rule England and bring it back to the comforting bosom of the Roman catholic faith...ordering the burning and torture of hundreds of protestants along the way, earning her the nickname of Bloody Mary...although it is a little known fact that her half sister Elizabeth ordered almost as many catholics to death.

This is why there's a line of succession.  The old ruler might not have had children or brothers or sisters - but I guarantee if you go far enough back on his or her family tree there will be cousins somewhere.\n\nThis has actually happened in real life before.  When Queen Anne died childless, Great Britain had to go to Germany to find the nearest (Protestant) successor.  A member of Queen Anne's family had married in to that family years before.  The House of Stuart died with her and King George I became the the first member of the Royal House of Hanover.\n\nSometimes the actual relation of the old king or queen to their successor is miniscule.  When Henry VII became king, the only blood basis he could give for the claim was that his mother was the great-great granddaughter of King Edward III, a hundred years earlier.
