Fun fact both queen elizabeth 1 and 2 came to the throne at age 25.
Also, both had an integral relation with a man named Philip. The first's was as an archenemy while the second was her husband.
Also both of them are unexpected heir apparent too
@@NewRepublicMapper both had no king
the 1st one was not married to one
the second one was married but he was not a king .
@@NewRepublicMapper
both had a era named after them.,
the Elizabet eras.
Queen Elizabeth I died when she was 69 years old, Queen Elizabeth II died when she was 96 😂
"Elizabeth calmly ordered for the separation of his head, from his body"
Best line ever😂😂
There is nothing to be joked about
@@shetheyithe8894 I think there is
@@madeleinebabbitt No, there is not

Elizabeth I is my favourite English monarch! So glad you decided to cover her!
Mine too
Mine As Well
Elizabeth I was not the nicest ruler, she had anabaptist and catholics quartered, she tortured a pregnant woman (Margaret Clitherow) she executed people who hided priests (Anne Line), she had black slaves and killed africans, she killed a lot of irishs, she executed her cousin, she made a cult of her personality, she made creepy jokes about her mother's death, she made the sailors who fought for her against the spanish armada starve to death because she did not want to paid them, she increased taxes and did not care if her people were dying because she wanted new dresses, she made propaganda and forbidded any bad information about her that's why we remember her as "good" queen Bess...
@@overlordaren9483 as yall should
mine too
Personally i firmly believe that Elizabeth I succeeded as a leader where her father, Henry VIII, had failed.

Elizabeth I was better than her father, but Henry VIII didn’t really fail though. He successfully broke from Rome, which gave England far more autonomy to do things their own way.
Also, if England stayed Catholic, it would be less likely that the civil war and glorious revolution happen later.
Plus he set up / invested in the Royal Navy, which would be the thing that made Britain a superpower in later centuries. Henry VIII was brutal and a tyrant at the end, but not without his influence and achievements.
And she learned from the mistakes of Mary I to make her reign better
Just a couple of minor corrections: Anne Boleyn was executed with a sword, not an axe as shown, and the British Empire at it's height wasn't just one of the biggest, it was the biggest empire of all time.
The sun never sets...
Mongol empire:bru
@@StackND the Mongol was 2nd biggest empire British with there colonis being 1st
That’s not true, white people always do this. There were thriving Asian and African countries as well
@@overwritehoney6524 I'm sure no one doubts that there were thriving Asian and African countries too, just, that was not what we were talking about. My comment was that the British Empire was the biggest empire in history. It was purely size I was typing about, not how thriving it was.
Henry VIII was actually quite fond of Elizabeth, especially because he saw her as extremely bright. After the birth of Edward, Henry felt free to dote on Elizabeth as he believed the monarchy to be secure. He enjoyed "showing her off" in court.
Gross.... She was way too young.... and HIS DAUGHTER! Henry VIII really was a scourge on the Earth.
@@kingace6186 Oh please. There was nothing untoward between Henry VII and Elizabeth. And Henry had is faults, but he was hardly the "scourge of the earth." Get back to me when you understand the history of Tudor-Stuart England.
@@kingace6186 what do you mean? You thought he lusted after his own daughter? He is pretty vile but he’s not that vile! The commenter just said he was proud of Elizabeth and showed her off in court, showing people that his daughter was fit to rule.
@@kilgore1863 Actually, knowing Henry he would be more fond of her and showed her off due to her reserved beauty paired with her intelligence. He was ruining marriages (beheading and divorces and all) over a lack of male heir. So what makes you think Henry was fine with settling for a female heir? (Despite Queen Elizabeth I being one of the most legendary Monarchs to come out of the British Isles.)
@@kingace6186 ok, i was pretty wrong about henry being content in elizabeth as heir. But he was still proud at first, but then, anne hadnt given him a male heir yet so he was slowly but surely displeased with elizabeth
Honestly Mary story was really sad honestly they didn’t even bury her with her mother and was mistreated by her father but it still doesn’t excuse all the bad things she did
Mary did nothing wrong compared to what protestant english monarchs did to the catholics in ireland.

My love of history is literally connected with the same passion my dad has for it. I literally couldn’t stop watching! I get so busy with my career I sometime forget my simple passions. This was great. American/European and quite frankly world history have always filled my childhood. I’m so happy to have remembered how much I love these kinds of topics. This was great 😊
thats nice!
Couldn't agree more, there's something so exhilarating about learning about historical events and people. As they say those whom refuse to study history are doomed to repeat it.
Literally?
What a sad life you live in
@@Undefinedde Says the person whom deemed themselves obligated to negatively comment against someone who's only wrong doing to deserve such a comment was expressing themselves in a positive and loving manner. I would suggest that you meet the criteria and in fact are the very definition of someone engaged in a so called sad life. I'm very sympathetic towards your insecurities that forced you to write such a comment and implore you to confine in professional help so you are able to overcome these obstacles that are keeping you from being the intelligent loveable person you where born to be. Best wishes and good luck on your journey
She was not just a badass, but also Heavy Metal!
Mostly lead and mercury.
I chose Queen Elizabeth I as a school project and i fell in love with her independence.
Both Elizabeth has something in common. Their service and loyalty to the country. Both of them has the body of a female but has a heart and the stomach of a king and their brave personality.
They were also both never supposed to be Queen

It shouldn't be called the heart and stomach of a KING because BOTH Women and Men (boys and girls) are equal.
@@koalakween6732 Well for the era where Women and Men's equality is different, i say they proved everything what society is saying decades ago
@@koalakween6732 no their not?
Elizabeth could also speak Irish, Cornish and Scottish fluently.
Of her abilities with language an ambassador wrote that she "possessed [these] languages so thoroughly that each appeared to be her native tongue".
Rest In Peace, Queen Elizabeth the Second.
A tad bit too late for that
Watching this video after 25 seconds of upload and Coincidently right in front of Buckingham palace 🔥🔥
I love synchronicity’s!
Infographics Show is good at Coincidences
I seem to think of things and then Infographics Show Sometimes uploads Something to do with that thing lol
That’s those algorithms at work lol

Maybe America and Britain aren't so different after all.
USA has Theodore Roosevelt.
And
Britain has Queen Elizabeth the First.
Both badass in their own unique ways.
Ah yes, Theodore Roosevelt even fought SCP-682 together with Lord Blackwood
One former colony and now U.S. state is named for her: Virginia.
She was known as "The Virgin Queen". In current vernacular, she'd be more "Chadette" not a word but it works.
The fact that there is a difference in economic and power balance between the US and Mexico today, can be dated back to the events between England and Spain at this time.
Welp, that's why I'm a badass.
How are you still alive?
I never commented on Infographics before
This animation on this one stood out so much to me, probably the outfits of the era, awesome
And Queen Elizabeth was so expressive, loved it
She married England itself
Ferdinand Magellan didn't complete the first circumnavigation because he was killed by the natives in the Philippines. That honor was given instead to Juan Sebastian Elcano who completed the rest of the journey.
Seen uncharted now have we
i was already confused why he said that
why does the thumbnail of this video look like as if her hair was like of mens hair lol
I did remember about that detail. Thanks for reminding me
England has some of the most iconic leaders EVER.
Not in recent years. One only lasted six weeks a few months back.
The Queen is not just "the queen of England", but the legally- and constitutionally-recognised Queen of the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland), Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Antigua and Barbuda, the Bahamas, Belize, Grenada, Jamaica, Papua New Guinea, Saint Lucia, Solomon Islands, St Kitts and Nevis, and St Vincent and the Grenadines, and many British Overseas Territories such as Gibraltar, the Falkland Islands, etc.
Well, that might be true now, but during the Tudor Dynasty, only a third of that was true.
@@kingace6186 Obviously, but I was addressing a point raised in the video about modern monarchy (from the first Acts of Union onwards).
@@piers389 Yup. I think "Queen of Titles" should be included in her titles. LOL.
@King Ace ➡ Indeed. Her Majesty's official title (in just the UK) is: "Elizabeth II, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of Her other Realms and Territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith."
➡ In Canada, Her Majesty's full title is: "Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God of the United Kingdom, Canada and Her other Realms and Territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith."
➡ And a final interesting oddity surrounding naming; in the Channel Islands - the Crown Dependencies of the Bailiwick of Jersey (the place where the US state of New Jersey gets its name from) and the Bailiwick of Guernsey - the Queen is known as the Duke of Normandy, rather than the Duchess of Normandy. The claim to Normandy (and France in general) goes back ~half a millennium to when the entirety of France should have been ruled by the English Government and the English monarch.
In fact, if one looks at the Royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom (and variants of the royal coat used by Elizabeth II and the Government, but excluding Scotland as royal coat is different), you will see "Dieu et Mon Droit" written at the bottom. This translates to "With God and My Right" (not 'With God at My Right, as many seem to think) which very literally means 'with God and the [monarch's] right to rule over France'. Unsurprisingly, this goes back to royal marriage and war with France.
➡ Sorry if that was too long (I've just realised it turned into a short essay!) or came across as patronising - it's not my intent. I'm not even British (I've lived in the United Kingdom since childhood and have dual nationality), but I find these bits of historical and royal trivia fascinating.
PS: the arrows were to help make the comment seem less like a wall of text.
@@piers389 No, it's fine. I enjoyed reading your essay. The history and trivia of the royal sovereign have always interested me. In fact, I like to think of the Queen's titles as a window into the crown's history. Also, the the different versions showcase the history of the sovereign & the geopolitical realities of the dominions and commonwealths.
MY FAVOURITE ENGLISH MONARCH💅🖤💅🖤💅🖤💅
Elizabeth went through a lot making her show everyone she was not weak.
If you can, I’d love for you to do a video on Catherine the Great
She’s one of my favorite Queens in history and I think she deserves the video 👌🏻
Mine too
My fave is Cleopatra (the last Pharouh of Ancient Egypt)
@@koalakween6732 u mean faroe
She also survived smallpox, covering those scars, and later her wrinkles, with makeup made with lead and mercury. It's thought she either died of poisoning from those, or of blood poisoning, since the coronation ring she never took off eventually started cutting into her finger.
She had her Fathers Rule, Her Brothers Rule and her sisters rule to learn from.
While trying to survive all of them. She allowed her trials and tribulation as education and not to bitter her.
“A Column of Fire,” by Ken Follett, brings a great view of Queen Elizabeth I. Listen to the unabridged audiobook while driving or doing manual labor.
Anne boleyn was so proud
Queen Bess is my favorite historical figure! The GOAT of all queens!
the queens are always the most badass or evil tbh
Queen Elizabeth I I gotta respect, the amount of black air force energy and the speech you narrated by her felt stoic to the core. The moxie she wielded is simply unmatched, her character in general was amazing and she was one in a million unlike modern women today.
Elizabeth I was not the nicest ruler, she had anabaptist and catholics quartered, she tortured a pregnant woman (Margaret Clitherow) she executed people who hided priests (Anne Line), she had black slaves and killed africans, she killed a lot of irishs, she executed her cousin, she made a cult of her personality, she made creepy jokes about her mother's death, she made the sailors who fought for her against the spanish armada starve to death because she did not want to paid them, she increased taxes and did not care if her people were dying because she wanted new dresses, she made propaganda and forbidded any bad information about her that's why we remember her as "good" queen Bess...
To be fair, Queen Elizabeth 1 did fail in one matter. She never conceived an heir to a throne, and, while luckily there was no war of succession, it meant the end of the Tudor Dynasty. On the other hand, thanks to her reign creating a much more stable and orderly England, after her death, the Monarchy was able to peacefully transition even with all the hurdles.
Perhaps that's intentional too. With James being her unofficial heir, it will unite Scotland with England.
I love the Tudors house just because of this woman .

I LOVE THESE VIDEOS BECAUSE THEY MAKE HISTORY SO MUCH BETTER AND AS WELL AS ALL OTHER SUBJECTS
Do a video on Queen Catherine of Aragon…but please make it less biased than the other one y’all did on her.
Wait how was it biased? Not saying it wasn’t I’m curious
@@camclarke7006 Queen Catherine of Aragon was the definition of a true Queen and Royal Princess. She inherited her mother’s(Queen Isabella of Castile) strength, royal blood, and dignity. Queen Catherine was the best wife of Henry, and no one can prove me otherwise. When folks don’t agree on me on my opinion, I always tell them to check on the internet, and research the lives of the six wives of Henry. Then, they realize who the best Queen was. At the end of the day, the only true wife was Catherine of Aragon ❤️🥰💕👸🏼
@@mindyobusiness5868 I have a question imagine if Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard were never killed and they got a divorce from Henry would they have made it to Elizabeth reign or would they have been killed by Edward or Mary in your thoughts and opinions thanks
@@mindyobusiness5868 imagine if Mary queen of Scots was never killed and she became queen of England in 1603 how would England have been

Never underestimate the power of a woman
1:17 she wouldn’t want the stomach of Henry the 8th
She also survived a few assassination attempts.
Is it included her assassination from Mary Stuart of Scott?
Boy do I love this channel 😄 I feel like I learn so much and have fun while doing so. Well done sir 👏 👍
Well Robert Dudley and Elizabeth did remain close until his death even after she pushed him away due to his second marriage to one of Elizabeth's ladies in waiting
Elizabeth not only saw what her sister went through ver love but her mother just because she was young doesn't mean she couldn't figure it out love got her mama killed
Elizabeth I learning Welsh isn’t surprising, as Henry VIII had incorporated Wales into England in 1536 (coincidentally, the same year that he beheaded Anne Boleyn), therefore meaning that Elizabeth I would need to know Welsh to be able to rule the entirety of the Kingdom of England.
@msmissy6888 Only means that it makes even more sense then.
She was actually better than a bunch of politicians nowadays….
Edit: Not for everything tho, like beheading people, but her private life is her own business.
Nah, beheading is cool 😎
Not seen any decent politicians ever

Wow, make it seem like Mary I wanted to behead Lady Jane Grey! (She didn't, but was forced to after a second rebellion in Jane's name). She also burned the Protestants at the stake due to the belief at the time that being in the fire would scare them to face eternal hellfire so much that they would recant and immediately be able to go to heaven.

Great video
Wow that's amazing
Nice video
We can clearly say that her emotions died with her horrible past experiences.
Could you guys please, please🙏 make a video on the Boer Wars in South Africa... It would mean allot! Keep up the magnificent work👍👍
Been watching for a min ☄️🔥
Oh , and if I remember correctly , John Doe accompanied Drake as Elizabeth's " eyes " .

I have a question can you do a video on Ane berlin and the other queens that were married to king Henry the eighth just a suggestion
The narrator is a whole vibe!!
We have such history. Yes she was ruthless woman and the FIRST Iron lady!
Reign is actually a badass show, and queen Mary is fine AF on there lol
Beware, for the echoes of Queen Elizabeth I's power still haunt us. Her unwavering strength and foresight send shivers down the spine. A truly formidable presence in history!

Appalled that Mary, Queen of Scots didn't even get a passing reference in this video. She made Elizabeth I look vulnerable in her later stage of life.
Bro just explained the whole terms work we did for 8 weeks in 11minutes.... true hero
Rest in peace my true queens Lizzy 1 and 2,
“Devereux, did you attempt to revolt against me?” Elizabeth I asked calmly.
She then proceeded to order the separation of his head from his body.
I wonder if they can do a video about people who survive extreme death sentences like 115 years in prison?
Living proof at the time, and an example to this day, of the fact that women can do anything that men can do (and often better).
Queen of hearts
I guess your all here after her majesty’s the Queen Elizabeth II passed away last week RIP
We need a 7 season series on this. Co-written by affiliated ladies and gentlemen from the east and west coast
Died in 1603 at the age of 69
There were both the same age when they took the throne. I queen Elizabeth the first and the second are getting to know each other right now.

@Bella Delphino ?what?

She also was known to hate bathing.
Elizabeth I's greatest move was the moderate and cautious approach to protastantism. This approach ultimately led to England remaining fairly unscathed by the religious wars of France, Spain, HRE and Netherlands. Also, the approach to colonialism taken by QE2 and England turned out to be a lot more sustainable than Spain's.
Another fact that makes her badass: she owned ferrets, so did Victoria 😁
