During the Battle of Tilbury in 1588, Queen Elizabeth I delivered a famous speech to her troops, bolstering their morale as they prepared to defend England against the Spanish Armada. She emphasized her commitment to the nation and her willingness to lead them in battle, famously stating that she had "the heart and stomach of a king." Her presence and inspiring words helped rally the soldiers, contributing to the eventual defeat of the Armada. This moment is often celebrated as a symbol of her leadership and the unity of England during a critical time.
