| - Elizabeth I was the Queen of England, the predecessor of the Holy Britannian Empire, during the 17th Century ATB. She remained single, just like her real world counterpart, but unlike the real world Queen Elizabeth I, she had an illegitimate son who succeeded her. that son was known as Henry IX after taking the throne after her death in 1658 ATB (1603 AD).
- She succeeded Mary I in 1558 after the latter was murdered by Edward Howard, an Assassin. At some point, she came into the possession of an Apple of Eden, which she kept hidden as the Globus crucigar. Edward Howard also threatened Elizabeth after she executed his brother for 'treason', and was forced to flee the country. This event turned Elizabeth somewhat again the Assassins in England.
- Seeking to help Elizabeth ascend the throne, the Assassins killed Mary in 1558. By 1559, Elizabeth had come into the possession of an Apple of Eden, which she kept hidden inside a globus cruciger. However, the mathematician and consultant of Elizabeth, John Dee, knew of the Apple and its powers. After her death in 1603, Dee sent a painting of Elizabeth wielding the artifact during the Judgement of Paris to Elizabeth Jane Weston, the stepdaughter of his former colleague Edward Kelley, as a wedding present.
- Elizabeth I (7 September, 1533 – 24 March, 1603) was Queen of England, Queen of France (in name only), and Queen of Ireland from 17 November 1558 until her death. She is sometimes referred to as The Virgin Queen (as she never married), Gloriana, or Good Queen Bess, and was immortalized by Edmund Spenser as the Faerie Queene. Elizabeth I was the sixth and final monarch of the Tudor dynasty (along with Henry VII, Henry VIII, her half-brother Edward VI, her cousin Jane, and her half-sister Mary I). She reigned for 44 years, during a period marked by increases in English power and influence worldwide, as well as great religious turmoil within England.
- Elizabeth set out to rule by good counsel, and she depended heavily on a group of trusted advisers led by William Cecil, Baron Burghley. One of her first moves as queen was to support the establishment of an English Protestant church, of which she became the Supreme Governor. This Elizabethan Religious Settlement held firm throughout her reign and later evolved into today's Church of England. It was expected that Elizabeth would marry, but despite several petitions from parliament and numerous courtships, she never did. The reasons for this outcome have been much debated. As she grew older, Elizabeth became famous for her virginity, and a cult grew up around her which was celebrated in the portraits, pageants, and literature of the day.

She ascended to the throne in 1558 upon the death of her older half-sister, "Bloody" Mary. A Protestant, Elizabeth made that religion the official state religion of England, as it had been under her father and younger brother, Edward VI; Catholicism had been the state religion under Mary. Elizabeth also persecuted Catholics in much the same way her sister persecuted Protestants. For these reasons, she was excommunicated by Pope Pius V in 1570.
