Edward VI (12 October 1537 – 6 July 1553) 

was King of England and Ireland from 28

 January 1547 until his death. He was crowned 

on 20 February at the age of nine.The son 

of Henry VIII and Jane Seymour, Edward was
 
 the third monarch of the Tudor dynasty and 

England's first monarch raised as a Protestant.

In February 1553, at age 15, Edward fell ill. 

When his sickness was discovered to be 

terminal, he and his Council drew up a "Devise 

for the Succession", attempting to prevent the

 country being returned to Catholicism. Edward 

named his cousin Lady Jane Grey as his heir

 and excluded his half 

sisters, Mary and Elizabeth. 

Edward VI 
Mary I (18 February 1516 – 17 

November 1558) was Queen of 

England and Ireland from July 1553 until 

her death. Her brutal persecution 

of Protestants caused her opponents to

 give her the sobriquet "Bloody Mary".

 As the fourth crowned monarch of

 the Tudor dynasty, Mary is remembered 

for her restoration of Roman Catholicism 

after the short-lived Protestant reign of 

her half-brother. During her five-year 

reign, she had over 280 religious 

dissenters burned at the stake in

 the Marian persecutions. Her re-

establishment of Roman Catholicism was

 reversed after her death in 1558 by her 

younger half-sister and

 successor, Elizabeth I.

Mary I
The prison.
In January and February  1554, Wyatt's

 rebellion broke out; it was soon 

suppressed.Elizabeth was brought to court, and

 interrogated regarding her role, and on 18 March, 

she was imprisoned in the Tower of London. 

Elizabeth fervently

 protested her innocence.Though it is unlikely

 that she had plotted with the rebels, some of them 

were known to have approached her.On 17 April 

1555, Elizabeth was recalled to court to attend the 

final stages of  Mary's apparent pregnancy. If Mary

 and her child died, Elizabeth would become 

queen. If, on the other hand, Mary gave birth to a 

healthy child, Elizabeth's chances of becoming 

queen would recede sharply. When it became clear

 that Mary was not pregnant, no one believed any  

longer  that she could have a child.

William Cecil, 1st Baron

 and Lord High Treasurer from 1572.

 He was the founder of the Cecil

Leicester  was an

 death. She giving him reason

 to hope, he was a suitor for

 the Queen's hand for many

 years. In 1564 Dudley

 became Earl of Leicester and

 from 1563 one of the greatest

 landowners in North 

Wales and the EnglishWest

 Midlands by royal grants.

Elizabeth liked luxury. She had 300 dresses, a lot of diamonds, wigs, cosmetics. When she stood she seemed to be the Sun, or the Star which dazzled its magnificence…

Admiral (1540 – 27 January 1596) was

 an English sea 

captain, privateer, navigator, slaver, 

andpolitician of the Elizabethan 

era. Elizabeth I of Englandawarded 

Drake a knighthood in 1581. He was 

second-in-command of the English 

fleet against the Spanish Armada in

 1588. He also carried out the 

second circumnavigation of the world, 

from 1577 to 1580. He died 

of dysentery in January 1596 after 

unsuccessfully attacking San Juan,

 Puerto Rico.
His exploits were legendary, making 

him a hero to the English but

was known as El Draque.

Mary Stuart

Mary Stuart`s execution in 1587


Mary was not beheaded with a single strike. The first blow missed her neck and struck the back of her head. The second blow severed the neck, except for a small bit of sinew, which the executioner cut through using the axe. Afterward, he held her head aloft . At that moment, the auburn tresses in his hand turned out to be a wig and the head fell to the ground, revealing that Mary had very short, grey hair. A small dog owned by the queen, a Skye terrier, is said to have been hiding among her skirts, unseen by the spectators. Following the beheading, it refused to be parted from its owner's body and was covered in her blood, until it was forcibly taken away and washed.

Spanish Armada.
On 12 July 1588, the Spanish Armada, a great fleet of ships, set sail for the channel, planning to ferry a Spanish invasion force under the Duke of Parma to the coast of southeast England from the Netherlands. A combination of miscalculation, misfortune, and an attack of English fire ships on 29 July off Gravelines which dispersed the Spanish ships to the northeast defeated the Armada.The Armada straggled home to Spain in shattered remnants, after disastrous losses on the coast of Ireland.
Robert Devereux, 2nd Earl of Essex was

 an English nobleman and  a favourite of Elizabeth

 I. Politically ambitious, and a committed general, 

he was   placed under house arrest following a

 poor campaign in Ireland during the Nine

 Years' War in 1599. In 1601 he led an

 abortive coup d'étatagainst the government

 and was executed for treason.
