While she was queen of England, she had many intelligent advisors to aid her in ruling her country. She ruled over England for 45 successful years.

Her people loved her because she ruled with wisdom and intelligence.
She was a Renaissance woman!
''I will be as good unto ye as ever a Queen was unto her people. No will in me can lack, neither do I trust shall there lack any power. And persuade yourselves that for the safety and quietness of you all I will not spare if need be to spend my blood. '' ~Queen Elizabeth (night of coronation)
