who do you think was a good queen and why?

Answer 1

On January 15, 1559, after a fabulous procession through the streets of London, Elizabeth Tudor was crowned Queen Elizabeth I at Westminster Abbey. Her 45-year reign would witness the defeat of the Spanish Armada and the English Renaissance of Letters, and is sometimes considered the end of the Middle Ages in Britain.

She was called by the people "Good Queen Bess."

When she came to power England was an insignificant country. When she died it was a major European power. That's pretty good.

I don't have a queen. I think the only people who can legitimately call their ruler good are her own people. The people called her good queen Bess. That's pretty good too.

Elizabeth succeeded in furthering England's interests in the face of foreign threats and religious unrest at home. Highlights of her reign include making the Church of England (a Protestant denomination) the state religion, while avoiding war with the powerful Roman Catholic nations of Europe; the English navy defeated of the Spanish Armada; English merchant ships challenged Spanish preeminence on the high seas; the first settlers were sent to America to open the way for a great colonial empire, and England's economy flourished. The English court became a center for writers, musicians, and scholars. English literature thrived during this period, with Francis Bacon composing his Essays, and William Shakespeare writing his great works of drama and poetry.

Answer 2

Queen Lathifah

Answer 3

There is no perfect Queen of course. Elizabeth the first was good because she was smart and knew how to run a country. Queen Victoria was good until her mourning went so far as to the point she couldn't take care of her kingdom. Definetly not Queen Elizabeth 2 she doesn't empathize with her people enough. I think every ruler should able to be empathetic but also stout in their ways.

Answer 4

Victoria was the best Queen. Not because she did the most for the Dominion but because she was loved. She had a common way about here and was thoughtful about her subjects.
