Elizabethan England: The Untold Dark Side

Interest in Elizabeth I and her rule from 1558 to 1603 appears boundless, often tinged with deep admiration.
Under her leadership, tolerance found advocacy, religion achieved equilibrium, seas were charted, an empire was forged, and a small nation defended itself against formidable adversaries, discovering its voice and purpose in the process. Her reign seemed to impart a profound understanding of the essence of the country and its significance. Elizabeth's era cultivated a sense of national identity previously elusive, and she, in turn, epitomized the nation's finest attributes: bravery, self-reliance, eccentricity, humor, unpredictability, and pragmatism when reason prevailed.
Yet, not all who lived through the Elizabethan age shared this rosy view of it as a golden era.

Yes like 'Elizeb'then' never heard that. But I don't think I've heard many scots say the word.
