she became a threat to the English throne by wanting to unite Scotland and England under her rule, by dethroning Elizabeth the First ( her cousin) of course Liz the 2nd would not have that, so she sent her troops to overtake Mary, grab her and lock her up in the Tower, where she stayed until she was beheaded (ugh) and so ended the History lesson for today.
