The Anglo-Scottish War began after Mary I, convinced Henry IX of England to invade Scotland so she could be placed back on the throne. After she had helped look after his daughter (the future Elizabeth I of England) Henry was obliged to help, and so in January, 1575 he began to culminate an army and marched them to the English-Scottish border, while he did this a group of 12 warships and 2 galleons set of from London to Edinburgh to blockade the city. By July 1, the ships had made it to Edinburgh, only meeting a resistance of 2 warships, they then set up a blockade of the city and put it under heavy fire.

| - The Anglo-Scottish War began after Mary I, convinced Henry IX of England to invade Scotland so she could be placed back on the throne. After she had helped look after his daughter (the future Elizabeth I of England) Henry was obliged to help, and so in January, 1575 he began to culminate an army and marched them to the English-Scottish border, while he did this a group of 12 warships and 2 galleons set of from London to Edinburgh to blockade the city. By July 1, the ships had made it to Edinburgh, only meeting a resistance of 2 warships, they then set up a blockade of the city and put it under heavy fire. Soon after this the men just south of the Scottish border began to enter Scotland, meeting easy successes along the way. Though at first the English met with little resistance the Scottish soon fought back, ferociously defending their nation. This is why the war dragged on for 7 years, as the English couldn't push past the Duns-Ayr line, while the Scottish found it equally difficult to push through the same line. There were heavy losses in battles that culminated to nothing. In the end the peace treaty had to be signed by both sides as they grew weary of the conflict, though the treaty was in England's favour the Scottish still signed it, as they had began to run out of food for their people due to the siege of Edinburgh and also the loss of a large amount of the Scottish lowlands. The main impact the war had was that Scotland's monarchy once again was under a Catholic queen, though she was more a puppet of Henry IX of England.
