Queen Elizabeth I, daughter of Henry VIII, who ruled Britain from the year 1533 to the year 1603, was the one that established Protestantism as the national Faith of England, ending the Catholic persecutions that were prevalent during the Mary of Scotts' rule. She was excommunicated by Pope Pius V, but she still let Catholics profess their faith as long they didn't commit or got involved in acts of treason, and she refrained puritans' impulses to act against Catholics.
