Did you ever see the movie Bloody Mary? She was a real queen of England, Queen Mary, daughter of King Henry VII and half sister of Elizabeth I. She reigned from 1553 to 1558. She first earned the title "Bloody Mary" when she had her cousin, Lady Jane Grey, executed to prevent a power struggle over the crown. She enhanced the name in her efforts to return Roman Catholicism, which had been replaced by the Church of England by her father, by executing many Protestant leaders. A lot of blood was shed in her five year reign.
