Who she was

Elizabeth, daughter of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn, became queen of England in 1558. She settled the Church of England as a Protestant church and never married, though many princes sought her hand.

In 1587 she had her cousin Mary, Queen of Scots, executed, and the next year her navy beat the Spanish Armada. Her reign saw the plays of Marlowe and Shakespeare and the voyages of Drake. She died in 1603, the last Tudor monarch.
