    I’m honestly really glad that this video included Lady Jane Grey, since I think people forget that she was a Queen, albeit it only for what 9 days? I’m also glad that clips from the Hollow Crown were included in this as well

    She was never recognized by Parliament or the Privy Council. The law that Edward VI signed shortly before his death was the brainchild of his Regent, who really ruled the country, Lord Northlumberland (John Guilford), who by the way was Jane's father-in-law. One has to surmise that he named Jane successor conditional on her marrying his son Dudley, thus making his son King.

    And the Stuart and Hanover too, even leading to today's Windsor. James I of England was her great great-grandson and George I of England and Hanover was James I's great-grandson. Since George I every monarch was either a child or grandchild of a prior monarch. The only reason they are not Hanover is that Victoria's children took their father's family name and then during WW1 due to it being a German name it was changed to Windsor.

    sailormoonserenity99 For some reason they always use somewhat unattractive actresses to play Elizabeth I. Mary, Queen of Scots was much attractive but the reality was that Queen Elizabeth I was pretty in her youth. She had a pretty face and fine nose. Her mouth was not wide. I suppse they are always looking for natural red heads so they ignore the features but Queen Elizabeth I was much better looking than that actress.

    That´s relative. Elizabeth was without a doubt the Queen of England in practice, but whether she was usurper or she had a lawfull claim, that´s something for discussion certainly. On the other hand, Mary Stuart´s claim was nothing to question, that was a sure thing. From one point of view, she was Elizabeth´s heir, but from the other, she became English Queen by the death of Mary Tudor. The fact that she wasn´t crowned or that she didn´t actually get to rule it is another thing. She wouldn´t be the first and neither the last.

    You mean England. Great Briton and England are two different things.England is one country where as Great Briton is four countries together. And the law is the law, if they are not crowned they are not legally the monarch. Just because they act like it doesn't make them the King/Queen. Jane Seymour for example was called Queen but was never crowned and this weakened Edwards claim to the throne when compared to his sisters whose mothers were both crowned.

    bexie1992 I know the difference and I did mean Great Britain, but you obviously need to refresh the history of the 20th century. But please, tell the Habsburks that they weren´t legal rulers of most of their realm for hundreds of years. If what you say, was true, the period of a king´s rule would be counted from the day of his coronation, which never is. You´re right, the fact the his mother never got to be crowned weakened Edward´s claim, but it wasn´t enough to cost him the throne. Anne Boleyn´s marriage to Henry was annulled by the highest head of their church and that simply made Elizabeth a bastard. Henry just made a law giving his daughters right to succession after their brother. He wasn´t the first king, who tried to have his bastard follow him on the throne, but most of them failed, because that wasn´t legal. Those laws had a good reason, coronation is just symbolical act, that many rulers ignored for being practicly pointless.

    @renshiwu3054 жыл бұрын

    Mary, Queen of Scots was the rightful Queen of England, if traditional inheritance rights were to be respected. Elizabeth I was a usurper by this same principle. First, start with the fact that Henry VIII declared his two daughters to be bastards. He rescinded this attribution later in life, when it was doubtful he would add to his brood. However, Mary and Elizabeth's half-brother Edward VI once again branded them bastards in his Device for the Succession. Leaving these facts aside, Henry annulled his marriage to Catherine of Aragon on the principle that his marriage to her was invalid. Neither the Catholic Church nor reformers like Martin Luther and Englishman William Tyndale accepted his argument. Moreover, if Mary I was queen by right, her parents' marriage, and Elizabeth's parents' marriage couldn't *both* have been valid because they would have been concurrent with each other. Either one or the other was the legitimate marriage. Finally, start with the simple definition that bastardy is the condition of being born out of wedlock or through adultery. Adultery is illicit sex. Sex between non-married people is illicit sex. Anne and Henry almost certainly started sleeping together after their visit to Calais on a diplomatic mission to the King of France. They were "officially" (but secretly) married on January 25, 1533. Less than four weeks later, Anne announced in open court of her desire to eat apples. This was clearly a pregnancy craving and intended to signify to the court that she was pregnant. This sign seems premature for a woman who should only have been pregnant since late January at the earliest. Elizabeth I was born on September 7, 1533. Do the math - that's less than eight months gestation time. In other words, Henry and Anne were engaged in extramarital sex before their official wedding date. Moreover, it wasn't until May 23rd that Henry and Katherine's marriage was declared invalid. Henry was a bigamist until that point in time. Elizabeth was a bastard in law and a bastard in fact and she had no right to the throne. Fitting, though, as the Tudor Dynasty was founded on bastardy. Henry Tudor's father's father was ostensibly Owen Tudor. Owen Tudor married the Dowager Queen of England. Queen Catherine de Valois was the daughter of a king (Charles VI of France), the wife of a king (Henry V of England), and the mother of a king (Henry VI of England). To suppose that she would settle down with a Welsh squire and her servant is a bit of a stretch. She had relations (personal but perhaps also sexual) with Edmund Beaufort, 2nd Duke of Somerset. The Beauforts were bastards and descended from John of Gaunt (as were both the Lancastrians and the Yorkists). The Tudors' blood claim to the throne came from this bastard filiation to John of Gaunt - although, it was via Henry Tudor's mother, Margaret Beaufort, that they claimed the throne. Notably, Henry IV, the legitimate son of John of Gaunt, barred his Beaufort half-siblings from the throne via decree. Margaret married Edmund Tudor (named for his true father?) to produce the future Henry VII. Henry VII's wife was Elizabeth of York, daughter of Edward IV and Elizabeth Woodville. Edward and Elizabeth's marriage was done in secret and not even announced until five months later; when marriage negotiations were already underway with a French princess. Additionally, Edward and Elizabeth's marriage was declared invalid because the Bishop of Bath and Wells (Edward's two-time Lord Chancellor) testified that he had secretly married Edward to another woman before his marriage to Elizabeth Woodville (making Edward a bigamist just like his grandson Henry VIII). On these grounds, the issue of Edward and Elizabeth's marriage were declared illegitimate and Richard III became king. The act that invalidated Edward and Elizabeth's children was called Titulus Regius and Henry VII had all copies destroyed to bury the notion that his wife was illegitimate (a copy was later discovered at the start of the 17th Century). So there you go, King Henry VII may have been the son of a bastard; his mother was only a contender for the throne via an invalidated bastard descent from the son of King Edward III; and the Queen Consort was also a bastard. Of course, if the Tudors were not legitimate rulers of England, neither would Mary, Queen of Scots have been (although her right to the throne of Scotland would still stand). Therefore, Margaret Pole (née Plantagenet), first cousin to Elizabeth of York and daughter of Edward IV and Richard III's brother George, Duke of Clarence, would have been the rightful Queen of England. Instead, she and most of her sons and a grandson were executed (very bloodily, in her case) during Henry VIII's reign on trumped-up charges. Power ultimately needs no justification.

Elizabeth looms larger in the historical conscience than she ought because of the iconography of her reign: virgin queen, rises from a disgraced state to queenship, and the emblem of England's lone stance against the foreign threat of Spain and France. A lot of things happened in her time but, then, all of Europe was experiencing the Renaissance, the Age of Discovery, and the Wars of Religion. There is nothing particular to Elizabeth that accounts for the uniqueness of the times. The 16th Century was a pivotal moment for many states in Europe: Isabella and Ferdinand united the Crowns of Spain, to be taken over by their grandson and his heirs; Sweden broke away from the Union of Kalmar and became independent; the Low Countries came under Habsburg overlordship, and, eventually, the Dutch Revolt broke out; the wars of religion erupted in Germany and the Emperor's rule was threatened; France experienced its own wars of religion as the Valois Dynasty came to an end; the Grand Duchy of Muscovy turned into the Tsardom of Russia, and the ground was laid for the future empire spanning Eurasia. I will say that, as many of Shakespeare's greatest plays concerned royal succession (e.g. "Hamlet," "King Lear," "Macbeth," "Richard III," and the Henriad), and, as Elizabeth's actions or inactions affected the succession, she may have indirectly contributed to this artistic legacy. That said, Elizabeth was mostly concerned with securing her own rule, and that is merely the baseline requirement of a monarch. I would suggest that Elizabeth's grandfather, Henry VII, was a more consequential monarch and in a positive way. He united the country after the Wars of the Roses, he created the basis for future kingship, and he established a sound treasury and fiscal policy. William III, often overlooked, was also a superior monarch in my estimation. You could say that George I - not through his own initiative, but because of him nonetheless - established the primacy of Parliament, which was a welcome development. I view Elizabeth as a Bill Clinton character: an intelligent and skilled charmer, who had capabilities, but utilized them primarily to maintain her own political position and without creating a lasting legacy beyond her time in power. Like Bill Clinton, too, she was a "Third Way" compromiser, in religion, as already stated, and in her foreign policy - that primarily relied on feinting and dithering, to make other countries think she would marry this or that prince, and alter their calculations about geopolitics.
