The first queen of England in her own right was considered to be Queen Mary Tudor(also called Bloody Mary as she was Catholic when on the throne and killed so many protestants during her reign). She was considered to be the first queen in her own rights because she became queen when the throne was past down to her after her brother Edward died as King. Unlike queens before she did not become queen because she was married to a King, she was Queen because there were no other male heirs that could take over the throne from Edward. Before she became Queen, men thought that women were not strong enough to become the leader of Britain, but even though Mary may not have been the best Queen Britain have ever seen she certainly showed them that she was just as strong as any other king, if not stronger!
