First and foremost, Elizabeth I was an outstanding ruler of England, who would reign for 45 years. She was a popular leader who was liked by her people. Elizabeth I was welcomed to the throne on November 17, 1558 at the age of 25, the day Queen Mary had died. But, her coronation did not take place until January 15, 1559 (Elizabeth I). During her time, there were many “voyages of discovery” for her country including: Francis Drake, Walter Raleigh and Humphrey Gilbert. Because of England forming colonies and expanding

In 1543, after the marriage with Catherine Parr, Henry had written another Succession Act known as The Third Act of Succession in which Mary and Elizabeth were established in the line of succession. Edward was his heir, if he died without an heir, the crown passed next to Mary and her heirs, and then to Elizabeth and her heirs. (Loades 54) Catherine was the only stepmother to show an interest in Elizabeth. She arranged for the girl, who was ten years old, to have the best tutors in England. (Archer n.p.)

Elizabeth I reigned as Queen of England from 1558 to 1603. Daughter of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn, she succeeded the throne from her half-sister, Mary I. During this time period, people such as John Knox and Nicholas Heath discriminated against Elizabeth because they believed that women were unfit to rule on a religious basis. However, people like John Aylmer and Marcus Generates were supported her through their ideas and artwork. Elizabeth did not succumb to the criticism, but instead exerted her power to those who opposed her and remained loyal to her subjects.

Elizabeth's adolescence was no easier than her childhood. While the King lived, she was safe from political opportunists, but when he died in the January of 1547, she became vulnerable to those who saw her as a political pawn. Despite being officially illegitimate, Henry had reinstated his daughters in the line of succession. Mary was to follow Edward, and Elizabeth was to follow Mary. This meant that Elizabeth was now second in line to the throne. Edward was too young to rule himself, as he was only nine years old, so his uncle, Edward Seymour, became Protector of England. His younger brother, Thomas Seymour, was jealous of his position and attempted to overthrow him. His scheme, which involved an attempted kidnapping of the Boy King, cost him his life. He had made no secret of his desire to marry Elizabeth (in Tudor times a girl was considered of marriageable age at twelve) so she was implicated in his plot. It was treason for an heir to the throne to marry without the consent of the King and his counsel, and at only fifteen years of age, Elizabeth had to persuade her interrogators that she knew nothing of the plot and had not consented to marry the King's uncle. She

Elizabeth was born at Greenwich Palace in England to King Henry VII and Anne Boleyn on September 7th, 1533.

Sixteenth century England experienced a phenomenon sometimes referred to as the Age of Queens. The decisive power of the country was placed in women’s hands and their reigns were watched with a reasonable doubt. There is contrast of rule in terms of reigns between Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth of England, both of whom were engaged in a protracted struggle for the English throne. Beside the legitimacy of their claims, there are more significant considerations which predestined them to either increase or lose their power. The rule and attitudes of the two monarchs bore significant influence upon the times in which they lived, including social, political and legal precedents which were being challenged and in some cases reversed. The fact that both Queens encountered situations of striking similarity, serves as a suitable example for a remarkable comparison, helping to analyze the lives of the two Queens and how their lives diverged as a result of such encounters and their actions thereafter. They were both Queens, struggling for the throne, they were women as well as rivals; they both had affairs with married men, however, one managed a narrow escape from the disgraceful situation, while the other failed to do so. Mary grew to hate Anne Boleyn, mother of Elizabeth, because he took the position of her mother Catharine as Queen of England. Before Elizabeth came to the scene, Mary was loved and was the only child of King Henry VIII of

It wasn’t until two years later that Henry realized he wasn’t going to get
