Who was the first Queen of England to rule in her own right?

It is my belief Queen Mary was poisoned possibly arsenic. Mary died young and had gotten fat. A fat stomach is a symptom of arsenic poisoning. I also believe her mother, Catherine, was poisoned. Catherine was known to take communion daily. Her priest was Spanish, an enemy of England and it would have been in Spain’s interest if Catherine did not bring a baby to term. Hence, just enough poison submitted daily in her communion to miscarry pregnancies.

Actually Matilda was queen there was civil war between her and Stephen as he usurped the thrown but her son ruled after Stephen as Henry Il

thebigtabu, this is why the puritans came here so they could worship God as they wanted. no one wants some monarch telling them who or how to worship.

VividPotion6704, Yes, it is a real word, ~verb~ meaning* to crown a sovereign.

thebigtabu, we were Catholic until Henry Vlll wanted to screw Ann Boleyn and seize land and wealth from the Catholic church. He forced people to become Church of England with violence and threw thousands of peaceful monks onto the streets.

is "coronated" a real word? could we just say crowned?
