    I love the diversity of this video, it talks about queens from many different countries, like Egypt, France, Scotland, ENGLAND, ENGLAND, ENGLAND, ENGLAND and ENGLAND. What about Catherine the Great of Russia, Marie Therese of Austria or ISABEL I OF CASTILLE? You just don't know them? Or you honestly think that "Elizabeth the Queen Mother" and "Elizabeth II" have been more important than them?

    I disagree. Right off the top of my head, I can think of two -- First, she worked to re-establish the value of England's currency, which had become horribly debased, thanks to Mary's support for Phillip's endless religious conflicts. Second, she established England as a great naval power (though, admittedly, grown upon a foundation of piracy). Actually, I just thought of a third -- her religious settlement in Parliament that went a long way toward healing some of the fractures in her country between Catholics and Protestants. Oops, I just thought of a fourth -- She took England's first tentative steps toward building colonies in the New World (though Raleigh's initial settlement was doomed to failure), which eventually led to the largest global empire the world has ever seen. There are probably more, but that's all that come to mind at the moment.
