You probably have heard some churches referred to as Basilicas, or Minor Basilicas.

But do you know what it means? How they differ from other churches?

A thread Image
Image
Image
Basilicas became a staple of Ancient Roman architecture, as a secular political building, especially serving courts.

They were buildings built around a central nave and with 2 or more aisles on the sides of it. Image
Image
After Constantine the Great legalized Christianity, its congregations didn't want to worship in converted pagan temples

For temples were built to have worship take place outside, in front of the highly decorated exterior, and the interior was left barren, for priests only Image

One of the silliest MFs of 1500s England

Was once arrested for going through streets and busting people's windows,

Hated Thomas Cromwell profusely, called him a "foul churl" publicly and had an hand in his execution,

Was so spiteful towards the Seymour family he prevented- Image
an alliance between his family (the Howards) and them, with his antagonistic antics,

Was arrested and executed for putting royal insignia on his Coat of Arms,

As he was arrested, requested Trial by Combat, but alas the cowards did not oblige
Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey.

The core conflict giving context to his life is that the Howards stayed loyal to Big Henry, but rejected the validity of his break with Rome, while Edward Seymour was a radical Protestant (Calvinist) in leanings.
