Mary Queen of Scots was held in house arrest for the final 19 years of her life under the pretense of protection with the reality that many people(not necessarily her 'captor' Queen Elizabeth I of England) thought she was plotting to take the English Crown.
12 years
Elizabeth.
Her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I, Queen of England and Mary I's successor, wanted Queen Mary I, Queen of Scots, to be executed.
Elizabeth I was born in 1533. Mary Queen of Scots was born in 1542. So, Mary was 9 years younger.
If Mary Queen of Scots had killed Elizabeth - a highly unlikely action from her perceived personality - she would have most likely enjoyed a stint as English Queen if she managed to live a substantial amount of time after the assassination of Elizabeth.
Elizabeth I was threatened many times from Mary Queen of Scots and the people Mary ruled. They were cousins, so Elizabeth was unwilling to kill her despite the threats. After they continued, Mary Queen of Scots was beheaded for these threats on the country. This is why Elizabeth was never physically hurt because of Mary, because Mary was killed.
Help her, imprison her, or execute her.
Mary Queen of Scots was Elizabeth I's cousin.
Elizabeth.
Queen Elizabeth was older than Mary Queen of Scots who was the daughter of her cousin. Elizabeth was born 1533 and Mary 1542. Elizabeth also had a half-sister Mary (Bloody Mary).
No. Mary, Queen of Scots, was the daughter of Elizabeth I's first cousin.
Elizabeth I blamed Mary Queen of Scots (her cousin!) for plotting against her. Mary was excecuted.
Elizabeth I aunt Margaret married Mary's grand father James IV of Scots.
Elizabeth I
she did
Her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I, Queen of England and Mary I's successor, wanted Queen Mary I, Queen of Scots, to be executed.
Queen Elizabeth the first ordered the execution of Mary Queen of Scots. Mary was a Catholic and Elizabeth was protestant. Mary was a threat to Elizabeth for that reason and also because she was too close to the throne. (this answer can be massively expanded on)
You are confused. Mary I of Scotland (Mary Queen of Scots) was the daughter of Elizabeth's cousin. Elizabeth's half-sister was Mary I of England (Bloody Mary). She obviously did not kill her as Elizabeth had a long and fruitful reign after Mary's death.
