If you would have asked them, they would probably have said they cheered for Elizabeth, but it was probably that as much as Mary's death.
Personally, I think that Mary Tudor really deserved the title 'bloody' because, even though she had a bad and disruptive childhood, she managed to burn alive 284 people during her 5 years of reign. Also she didn't listen to the thoughts of her people, made huge religious changes, married Philip of Spain against the advise of many at court and lost Calais due to marrying him. At the same time, it was Philip of Spain who had made Mary Tudor unhappy and unpopular and also didn't like her very much. Overall, I argue that Mary Tudor deserved the title 'Bloody Mary'.
A courtier was an official member of the court, often holding some official position such as Master of the King's Horse, or Master of he King's Chamber , or Master of the Revels. The Tudors were the English dynasty consisting of Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary I, and Elizabeth I.
Assuming you mean Mary, Queen of Scots, and not Mary Tudor (Elizabeth's half-sister), Elizabeth was reluctant to have Mary QS executed largely because, like Elizabeth, she was an anointed queen, and related to Elizabeth. She, Mary, was offered forgiveness and life, but she continued to be a part of several plots to assassinate Elizabeth. Ultimately Elizabeth had no choice and after many years and much vacillation she signed Mary's death warrant.
Henry VIII had two sisters. The older was Margaret Tudor, who married the king of Scotland and was the grandmother of Mary, Queen of Scots. The younger was Mary Tudor, who married the much older king of France, and when he died, she secretly married her brother's friend, Charles Brandon. Her granddaughter was the ill-fated Lady Jane Grey, the Nine Days Queen.
not much different from a white tudor persons life.
He had two sisters who survived to adulthood, the oldest being Margaret Tudor (1489 - 1541), who married James IV of Scotland, and was the grandmother of Mary, Queen of Scots.His youngest sister was Princess Mary Rose Tudor (1496 - 1533), who was apparently much favoured. The warship Mary Rose was named after her. She was married twice, first to the King Louis XII of France, and then, when widowed, to Henry's best friend, Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk. They were the grandparents of Lady Jane Grey, the "nine days queen".Here is a list of all the siblings of Henry VIII (1491 - 1547):· Arthur, Prince of Wales (1486 - 1502)· Margaret Tudor (1489 - 1541)· Henry - later Henry VIII (1491 - 1547)· Elizabeth Tudor (1492 - 1495)· Mary Rose Tudor (1496 - 1533)· Edmund, Duke of Somerset (1499 - 1500)· Katherine Tudor (born & died on 2 Feb 1503)
Under Henry VII virtually everyone was catholic. Henry VIII broke with Rome and began the move toward protestantism, though many peasants remained catholic. Edward VI tried to force protestantism on the country and with his death Mary I tried to reverse course and force Catholicism on the country. When Elizabeth I succeeded Mary, protestantism became the state religion, but Catholicism was allowed in private.
You mean, did they have an era named after them?Yes, in a generic sort of way.Most call it the "Tudor Period."All the historical terms came much, much later when history was recorded, the Tudors would not have called it the Tudor Times
Mary I (also known as Bloody Mary) actually killed 284.She was known as Bloody Mary because of how many protestants she killed. She killed them by tying them to a wooden stake with loads of dead trees around and then she set it on fire. She thought she was doing them a favour with a quick death and tied black powder around their waists.
She didn't, Mary Queen of Scots and Bloody Mary were two different people. Mary, Queen of Scots was born on 8th December 1542, became Queen when her father died on 14th December 1542 (yes, she was just six days old) and reigned until her execution on 24th July 1567 for allegedly plotting to overthrow Queen Elizabeth I of England. Bloody Mary was Elizabeth I's older sister. She was born on 18th February 1516, became Queen of England on 19th July 1553 and reigned until her death on 17th November 1558. She was called Bloody Mary because during her reign nearly 300 so-called heretics were executed for failing to follow Roman Catholicism.
no... it was an accident
