"Elizabeth: The Golden Age"

Queen Elizabeth of England was considered a fighter and a true lover of his country. Her actions and beliefs collided and created many enemies around Europe and in their own country. But, she always thought first in the future of his country even before his personal life, because as she said and explain she was married to England and its people.

As I said before, Elizabeth during her reign was considered “the Virgin Queen”, this was because she never got married and the consequences that this name brought to her was be criticized for not having a husband and descendants, because in those years for women was almost a rule.

Elizabeth had a big problem with Spain due to the struggle of American lands and their belongings. Elizabeth accept some gifts from America, which was felt as an insult to Spain and also she support the expedition of those lands without care the opinion of Spain. Those issues provoked a war between kingdoms.

During her reign Elizabeth showed how important was for her to protect people and fight with them. Moreover she was committed to England.
Take care.

  1. Dear Francisca,
    Good introductory sentence. In that way the reader can easily follow your later ideas.
    It is good that you have mentioned the fact that Elizabeth fought for her people and even she sometimes fought too much, leaving aside her own life.
    You also pointed out the fact that Elizabeth did not follow some of the rules of her time. She did not marry a man, even when society obliged her to do so.
    It is important that you mention some of the issues that triggered the war between Spain and England but, what were the other reasons that led to this war?
    Good use of words and interesting ideas.
    Try to pay attention to some mistakes you have.
    Nice writing!
