Mary Tudor

Mary Tudor, also known as Mary I of England, was a monarch who ruled from 1553 to 1558. She was the daughter of King Henry VIII and is notable for her efforts to restore Roman Catholicism in England after her father and brother's Protestant reforms. Her reign is marked by the persecution of Protestants, earning her the nickname "Bloody Mary." Despite her short rule, she played a significant role in religious and political stability during a turbulent period, ultimately leaving a complex legacy as a Catholic monarch facing the challenges of changing religious landscapes.
