Boadicea: The Warrior Queen
Boadicea was a Celtic queen who led a revolt against Roman rule in Britain in the 1st century AD. She was a fierce and determined leader who rallied her people to fight for their freedom. Boadicea's revolt was ultimately unsuccessful, but she remains a symbol of British resistance to foreign oppression.
Elizabeth I: The Virgin Queen
Elizabeth I was the Queen of England and Ireland from 1558 to 1603. She was a brilliant and charismatic ruler who presided over a golden age of English literature, art, and exploration. Elizabeth I was also a shrewd political operator who kept her country out of war for most of her reign. She is known as the "Virgin Queen" because she never married.
