Elizabeth I

Queen Elizabeth reigned from l558-l603. She died long before- The Puritan movement gained momentum. The Pilgrim fathers landed on Plymouth Rock in l620. ( the Mayflower voyage). This is l7 years after Elizabeth died. There was not even a nascent Puritan movement in her time.

The Queen of England in 1599 was Queen Elizabeth I of England, the fifth and final monarch (with the exception of Lady Jane Grey), of the Tudor Dynasty.

Elizabeth ascended to the throne on November 17, 1558, upon the death of Mary I, and was succeeded by the first Stuart monarch, James I of England (James VI of Scotland).

Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon (his first wife).

This never happened. Mary, Queen of Scots was involved in various plans to unseat Elizabeth th9ough not necessarily do her personal violence. She ws sympathetic to the Spanish King (Philip something, a relative) parlty-functional amphibious assault on Elizabethan England known as the Spanish Armada. The assualt plan failed largely due to weather and superior seamanship of the British. She did not consciously attempt to assasinate Elizabeth that was just not done! as it was the lost battle ended asny designs on the Spanish side. Mary I died in l558 before all this, she ws Elizabeth"s half sister by Henry Viii and Catherine of Aragon. Mary I (Bloody Mary) was half Spanish.

I think you've got your Marys mixed up. Mary Queen of Scots was the daughter of King James V and Mary of Guise. Elizabeth's half sister Mary was the daughter of Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon, and it was she who was Queen Mary I of England

There were 2 plots to put Mary Queen of Scots who was Catholic on the English throne. The Spanish had wanted a say in English affairs but Elizabeth, a Protestant, had previously refused marriage proposals from King Phillip II of Spain (Catholic), so a plot was formed to invade England, depose Elizabeth and have Mary Stuart as Queen. The plan failed. The second plan is known as The Babbington Plot. It's in this that Mary implicated herself with letters she had written to Anthony Babbington who along with others was plotting to have Elizabeth assassinated.

In theory throughout the centuries, the British Monarch inherits the throne by virtue of royal lineage, the will of God, and perhaps more recently, the will of the people through Parliament. Queen Elizabeth I, as any other sovereign, had the right to, of her own free will, give up the throne. This is referred to as abdication, and was exercised by Edward VIII in order to marry Wallis Simpson. Therefore, the original choice may not have been her own (birth), but certainly thereafter.

There was no relationship going on between them but, Drake wanted to protect her and do what ever she said or wanted.

Yes they were- that is why Elton composed a variation of 'Candle In The Wind' dedicated to Diana after her death in a car crash in Paris in 1997. He was devastated when she was killed, it was a big shock to him.

Jan van Eyck an Early Netherlandish painter active in Bruges and considered one of the best Northern European painters of the 15th century.

"The queen of the UK does do some jobs, but mainly she doesn't do anything. She doesn't exactly help within England and the problems going on. The main jobs that she does do though is launching a few ships, opening charity shops.

I hope this had helped. (;"

THIS IS RUBBISH.

The queen oversees the welfare of the British Commonwealth. She also keeps the yanks in line and limits British subservience to the USA.

Elizabeth Windsor (i think)

The heir to the throne is Prince Charles, the Price of Wales. He intends to be known as George VII.

she was popular because while she was a weak female figure on the outside, she was strong at heart. she also was smart enough to use English sea dogs to raid the spanish ships. she was also ruling when the spanish armada was taken down.

· Elizabeth's two sons from this first marriage were Thomas (later Marquess of Dorset) and Richard

· Elizabeth was called "the most beautiful woman in the Island of Britain" with "heavy-lidded eyes like those of a dragon", suggesting a perhaps unusual criterion by which beauty in late medieval England was judged.

· Edward IV well known for his sexual appetite lusted after Elizabeth, but she wouldn't submit without a promise of marriage, Edward agreed, probably not meaning it ,but Elizabeth held him to his word.

· Amazingly they kept their marriage secret for 4 months, there was uproar when their secret came out, still it was a fruitful marriage ,as she had 10 children to Edward

· Overall Elizabeth had a fantastic personality and was a truly lovely woman, but a tragic ending.to her life .

Queen Elizabeth the first never married. Queen Elizabeth II was married on Thursday the 20th of November, 1947.

Yes she was. let us not get too wrapped up in dates. Both Queens were Half-Sisters though a common Father, King Henry Viii. Mary was the daughter of Henry"s first marriage to Katharine of Aragon, who was ,as you may have guessed a Spanish lady.Elizabeth Tudor was the daughter of Henry and Anne Boleyn. Elizabeth acceded to the Throne on the death of Mary I (also called Bloody Mary) in l558 this was also the year of the Spanish Armada a failed amphibious assault on England by the Spanish Fleet. religious wars punctuated royal politics in those days!

The Spanish Armada was a failure and as such did not cause any real change in England. Not one ship landed on the shores of Britain. For the Spanish it left them with a depleted navy. Some ships were wrecked along the coast of Ireland whilst the fleet tried to round the British Isles on the way back to Spain. Some of these Spaniards settled in Ireland and their decedents are known as the black Irish.

Both were catholics but Mary held to a more modern brand of Catholicism. She held that the authority within the Catholic CHurch was held by the Bishop of Rome and this was by Divine Right, or God's Will!

This was a recent development and had led to an absorption within the Holy Roman Church of recently added ideas and claims and a total refusal to contemplate S.Paul's Injunction, "Keep the Deposit!"

Interestingly, King Henry, Eliza's father and the Church in England had been one of the opponents of this idea, though the arguments had rattled on for 1500 years!

What the Eastern Church and the Anglican Catholics held to was the idea of Christ Revelation, being passed on by the apostolic college to the bishops in their Councils, Seven Ecumenical Councils, which is the teaching of the first thousand years before the separation of east and west!

Elizabeth I enjoyed plays and court entertainments. She loved singing, dancing, listening to court gossip and investing in new fashions. She was an able equestrian and enjoyed riding. In addition, she enjoyed hawking and hunting, popular sports of royalty at the time.

Queen Elizabeth was a very bright and gifted child. She did not go to school, but was educated by private tutors. Her first tutor was Kat Ashley who taught Elizabeth reading, grammar, spelling, and the English language. As she grew older, she shared her brother Edward's tutors. She was taught French by Jean Balmain, Greek and Latin by Richard Cox. Others taught her math, astronomy and astrology.

A lady in waiting wears a dress. The colour can't be rich colour. The lady in waiting can't wear the same quality as the lady or the Queen. They are not allowed to wear purple because the purple is made from lots of tiny insect's leg. A Queen can wear purple.

England started turning Protestant and England seemed to be coming together. But when queen elizabeth heard of a possiable assasinatoin by the Catholics she then started to turn against the Catholics and banish them. England was also involved in the Spanish Armada and had to worry about the possiable invassion of Spain.
