What happend after Queen Elizabeth the 1st died?
Hopefully no one will. The queen is not even the rightful person to be on the throne. The correct heir is a person in Australia who is the ancestor of the kings illegitimate child from a few hundred years ago. The queen is not legitimate as a result. Therefore, her family is not even entitled to rule in reality. The current monarchy is therefore complete and utter rubbish. Charles Windsor or his sons are not princes in reality and deserve no more respect than any other person who is alive today.

The other was King James I of England and Ireland and VI of Scotland.It was more likely that the play was written under the second monarch instead of the first. The play was set mainly in Scotland and reinvented Scotland's history. The reinvention would not have interested Queen Elizabeth I. But it would have interested King James I/VI. The King was the son of Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots. The Stuarts liked to circulate stories about themselves. One such story was their descent from the fictitious Banquo through his son Fleance, both of whom appeared in the Shakespearian play.
