Partly.

Mary was brought up in France and spoke English with French accent. She was married three times, to the young King of France, to Lord Darnley (who was the father of James VI of Scotland and I of England and Scotland) and the Earl of Bothwell who, captured by pirates, went mad and died in Dragsholm Castle in Denmark.

Catholic countries like Spain were outraged by her execution, which certainly played a role in the long-planned (and ultimately disastrous) attack on England, the leading Protestant power of the time.

There isn"t any- Spanish Armada battle occured in l558 shortly after the accession of Elizabeth Tudor ( Elizabeth I). Mary I ( Bloody Mary) died in l558 of natural causes. Mary, Queen of Scots was executed by axe in l587 which is almost two decades later. Both Maries were devout Roman Catholics, Elizabeth was what we now calle Episcopalian or Anglican.
