QUEEN ELIZABETH I OF ENGLAND
Queen Elizabeth I of England was born in Greenwich on September 7, 1533. She
became the queen when she was 25. Elizabeth studied well and learned to speak Latin,
French, Italian, Greek and English, of course! She was intelligent, energetic and
brave. She was the first British monarch with an English mother and an English
father. But she never married and never had children. Many men wanted to marry
her, but she said no to all of them.
Elizabeth was the Queen for 44 years. This period is called the Golden Age because
England became a rich and powerful country for the first time. It was a Golden Age
for literature, discoveries and heroes too. Elizabeth was the queen of William
Shakespeare, the great writer, of Sir Walter Raleigh, who travelled to America and
imported potatoes and coffee, and of Francis Drake, the pirate who destroyed the
“Spanish Armada”.
