The father of Queen Elizabeth II was Prince Albert, the Duke of York, the second son of King George V. When George died in January 1936, he was succeeded by Albert's older brother, who became Edward VIII. But Edward decided to abdicate the throne less than a year later because of his unpopular romance with American divorcee Wallis Warfield Simpson. As a result, Prince Albert became the new king in December 1936, taking the name George VI. He reigned until his death on February 6, 1952, and was succeeded by his eldest daughter Elizabeth.

Why do people think that Queen Mary of Scots was 1st cousin to elizabeth the first when in fact they have the same father king Henry the 8th which made the 2 queens half sisters?
No !! Mary Queen of Scots & Elizabeth do not have the same father ! Elizabeths 1/2 sister is Mary Tudor, Queen Mary I. Mary Queen of Scots is Mary Stuart, mother of James VI of Scotland, James I of England. She is Elizabeths cousin not her half sister. Mary I is Elizabeths 1/2 sister. Mary I & Mary, Queen of Scots are two (2) different people !
What college did Queen Elizabeth 1 go to?
Queen Elizabeth in fact did not go to college. Which is unusual at the time because of the burst of education. She was home schooled most likely by servants but i wouldnt count on that to be the right answer. since her father was King Henry VII she didn't go to college or a university. Her mother wasn't a queen because Elizabeths father had Elizabeths mother and uncle beheaded. Hope this helped!
