British history

I will introduce Queen Elizabeth I. The daughter of King Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn, Queen Elizabeth 1 reigned England from 1558–1603. Her reign was marked by several plots to overthrow her, the execution of Mary Queen of Scots (1587), the defeat of the Spanish Armada (1588), and domestic prosperity and literary achievement. Elizabeth liked hunting and enjoyed court masques (entertainment of poetry, songs and dancing). She was very well-educated and was fluent in six languages. Elizabeth made England Protestant again and her will was the law. Elizabeth I's rule is remembered as the Golden Age of English history. Under her rule, England advanced in such areas as foreign trade, literature, and the arts. During Elizabeth's reign the age of began with explorers such as claiming new lands for England and introducing new materials and foods. so i think she is a very famous woman.
