	When Henry VIII died and Edward accessed the throne in January 1547, John Dudley started to play a more important role. Due to Edward’s minority, a regency council was given the task of ruling England until Edward would come of age. John Dudley, too, became a member of it and so he gained more influence. However, Edward’s uncle, [[Edward Seymour]], who was Duke of Somerset, introduced himself as his nephew’s [[Lord Protector]] thus ignoring the last will of Henry VIII and holding most of the power in the country. Even though John Dudley was not completely in agreement with this fact, he pretended to be and continued working together with him. In 1549 he managed to bring Somerset down by making use of the dissatisfaction and conflicts that prevailed in the country after Somerset’s policies, who had introduced an [[Book of Common Prayer\|English Prayer Book]] beforehand in order to establish [[Protestantism]] even more firmly. Dudley took advantage of the ongoing revolts and was able to defeat the rebels, which strengthened his success.
