Bloody MaryMary I, Queen of England, was a very important figure in European history. Her reign as queen was filled with many trials and tribulations that were not accepted by most of England. Most of Mary's rash decisions were probably due to her upbringing and lack of willpower. Whether she was declared a bastard as a child by her tyrannical father, Henry VIII, or her marriage to Philip of Spain, Mary was easily influenced by others and this showed as she grew older and took over. Mary was born the daughter of Henry. VIII and Katherine. Henry had not yet managed to give birth to a son to keep the one he had thrown away after him. His annulment of Katherine was not granted, so Henry decreed that the Church of England be separated from the Church of Rome. Katherine always tried not to compromise her daughter's inheritance, for this she was banished and Mary was declared a bastard. These events had a devastating effect on Mary who was once adored by both her parents. Mary never saw her mother again, and her stepmother, Anne Boleyn, treated her with extreme cruelty, even threatening to have her executed. All of these things affected Mary's adolescence. She suffered from premenstrual tension all her life; her periods were infrequent, or even absent. But despite all this, her mother's influence stayed with her. She inherited her piety and love of religion from her mother and made her life's crusade to restore England with the faith that Katherine had been so devoted to. Mary's innocence and naivety stayed with her throughout her life. This was present in his statement: “What is a whore, I have never heard that word before. » (Weir 12). And even more present in her marriage to Philip of Spain. Philippe was simply following orders, in no way was he attracted to Marie; Philip wanted to integrate England into the Habsburg Empire. Neither Spain nor England agreed to the marriage. They communicated in Latin since both could not communicate in English or Spanish (Marilee 2). Mary then led Philip to numerous false pregnancies, this was due to her irregular periods and she was now in menopause and developing a stomach tumor. Few people questioned her because she believed herself to be honest (Liston 117). Philip left and said he would not return unless he was crowned king.Mary continued...... middle of paper...... 4.
