Which favourite of elizabeth was executed for treason?
In 1618, one of Queen Elizabeth I's court favourites, Sir Walter Raleigh, was executed by order of her successor, James I. In 1603, after Elizabeth's death, Raleigh was sentenced to death for plotting against the new King (James did not like Raleigh), but this was commuted to imprisonment and Raleigh was sent to the Tower of London. In 1616 Raleigh was released from the Tower in order to set out on an expedition to look for El Dorado, and a possible haul of gold. However, the expedition did not succeed and Raleigh also attacked the Spanish during this period, against the orders of King James. When he returned to England therefore, the death penalty came into force again, and Raleigh was subsequently executed.
Why did sir Walter Raleigh get knighted?
I looked this up and he was accused of plotting against the King (James I, who didn't like Raleigh) and was convicted and sentenced to death. But instead, King James must have thought it better to imprison him for life, so he sent him to the Tower of London.
