=//**MARY I OF ENGLAND.**//=

**Here is her biography.**
//Mary I of England, also known as Mary Tudor, was born on Frebuary 18, 1516, at the Palace of Placentia in Greenwich, England. She was the only child of king Henry VIII and his first wife, Catherine of Aragon, to survive through childhood. She was baptized as a Catholic shortly after her birth. In 1525, Henry sent his daughter to live on the border of Wales, while he continuously tried to negotiate a marriage for her.//

//In 1553, Mary challenged and successfully deposed the new queen, Lady Jane Grey. She took the throne as the first queen regent. Mary immediately// //began repealing many of Henry VIII's religious edicts and replacing them with her own, which included a strict her's law. The enforcement of this law resulted in the burning over 300 Protestants as heretics. Mary's religious persecutions made her extremely unpopular and earned her the nickname "Bloody Mary".//

//Mary was 37 at the time of her accession. She knew that, if she remained childless, the throne would pass to her Protestant half-sister, Elizabeth. She needed a Catholic heir to avoid the reversal of her Catholic reforms. To accomplish this goal, she arranged to marry Philip, king of Spain.//

//The public response to Mary's marriage was unsuccessful and extremely unpopular. The marriage produced no children. Philip spent little time in England and provided no part of his vast New World trade network to the British crown. Meanwhile, the alliance with Spain dragged England into millitary conflict with France.//

//Mary fell ill in 1558, suffering from an ailment that may have been uterine or ovarian cancer. She died at St. James Palace in London on November 17, 1558, and she was interred at Westminster Abbey. Her half-sister succeeded// //her// //on the throne as Elizabeth I of England. Upon Elizabeth's death, she was buried alongside Mary.//
