QUEEN ELIZABETH I
Elizabeth I was born in September 7th 1533.She was
born in The Palace Of Placentia , Greenwich United Kingdom
I Had chosen Queen Elizabeth I , since I think she was a strong woman that was dominated by men . She achieved recognition for England as a leading power in Europe
And later she lead England as a woman , in what was a very much a mans world , in what she did this with courage , intelligence and loyalty to her friends . She was gifted with the ability to speak several languages including Latin ,Greek , French, Spanish and Welsh .
It was a really good accomplishment to survive the questioning she endured at the tower of London , when she was imprisoned there by her half sister Mary 1 . She was accused of being involved with the protestant rebellion led by Sir Thomas Wyatt The Younger .
On The religious front , Elizabeth’s Father Henry VIII had established protestant church of England as a demented church , Elizabeth’s half sister Mary I had tried to re – established the catholic church in England as the main religion of England killing thousands who refused to renounce their protestant faith .
As a result she became known as ‘Bloody Mary’ . It was during Elizabeth’s Reign , that the church of England , finally re – forced its position as the established church in England .
The Church StillHolds Today
Unfortunalty She caused untold pain and sorrow to Ireland and her people . While I personally may not agree with the views she held or the actions she took , I cannot , but admire her strength of character and her determination to achieve her goals .
Queen Elizabeth September 7th 1533 – March 24th 1603
