Did elizabeth 1 execute Mary 1?
This never happened. Mary, Queen of Scots was involved in various plans to unseat Elizabeth th9ough not necessarily do her personal violence. She ws sympathetic to the Spanish King (Philip something, a relative) parlty-functional amphibious assault on Elizabethan England known as the Spanish Armada. The assualt plan failed largely due to weather and superior seamanship of the British. She did not consciously attempt to assasinate Elizabeth that was just not done! as it was the lost battle ended asny designs on the Spanish side. Mary I died in l558 before all this, she ws Elizabeth"s half sister by Henry Viii and Catherine of Aragon. Mary I (Bloody Mary) was half Spanish. I think you've got your Marys mixed up. Mary Queen of Scots was the daughter of King James V and Mary of Guise. Elizabeth's half sister Mary was the daughter of Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon, and it was she who was Queen Mary I of England There were 2 plots to put Mary Queen of Scots who was Catholic on the English throne. The Spanish had wanted a say in English affairs but Elizabeth, a Protestant, had previously refused marriage proposals from King Phillip II of Spain (Catholic), so a plot was formed to invade England, depose Elizabeth and have Mary Stuart as Queen. The plan failed. The second plan is known as The Babbington Plot. It's in this that Mary implicated herself with letters she had written to Anthony Babbington who along with others was plotting to have Elizabeth assassinated.
Why did Mary imprison her sister Queen Elizabeth?
Elizabeth was the third in line for the throne after Henry VIII's death. She was a protestant heir to the throne and Mary who was the Catholic monarch before her was afraid that she would attempt to over throw her and place herself on the throne as a Protestant Queen. Mary imprisoned Elizabeth in 1554 because she was thought to have been involved in a Protestant plot against Mary that was lead by Sir Thomas Wyatt. She was released a short time later, I believe it was 8 weeks later, with no charge but was placed under house arrest.
What caused Queen Elizabeth's and queen Mary's bad relationship?
What caused their bad relationship was that Queen Mary was mistreated. And when she found out that Elizabeth was in her country she was scared she would try to overthrow her. So she imprisoned her ( where Elizabeth's mother died) and Elizabeth was deathly afraid of the castle. ( where her mother was killed) Most likely causing their bad relationship. The only thing that tied them together was that their parents did not give them enough attention. Elizabeth's mother was beheaded when she was 2 1/2.And Mary was mistreated and put on and off power wwwaaaayyy to many times and was ignored for most of her teen years.
Why did Elizabeth 1 not like her sister Mary?
Mary Queen of Scots had been deposed and fled Scotland, going to England seeking shelter. Since she had always claimed that Elizabeth I was illegitimate and that she, Mary, was the rightful queen, Elizabeth told her she had to give up that idea if she wanted protection. Mary refused, so Elizabeth had her put in confinement. Mary was imprisoned for 19 years, but finally was implicated in plots to overthrow Elizabeth. Parliament insisted that Mary be executed, and Elizabeth complied. Whether Mary was actually guilty of plotting we will never know. Nor will we know whether Elizabeth was actually reluctant to have her executed, as it is claimed.
