The DANGEROUS Transition From Tudor To Stuart

  • On the 24th of march 1603, England was in a state of shock, fear and hope. The queen of England, Elizabeth I died and the unknown was ahead. Many had grown knowing just one monarch and one rule and change was not always a welcomed thing. You see a new monarch meant new favourites, new job roles and appointments and more likely than not, new enemies.
    There was also a deep uncertainty about the kingdom. You see Elizabeth, the virgin queen, had no heir and refused to name a successor. Elizabeth had seen the dangers of doing so and so it was only on her dying breath that she did so. She had seen plots unfold with the intent to take her down as well as sedition and disharmony within her realm. To her very end, Queen Elizabeth I had to protect herself and her position, even at the expense of a potential future civil war.

    Elizabeth was a better ruler than James could ever be

      They saying at the time was, "England has lost a great King who was a Queen and gained a new Queen who is a king".😁

    James' son Henry Frederick would have been a good king, but unfortunately he died young.

    I hadn't thought before of how the Scottish tradition of the monarch being "a law unto himself" might explain the later antipathy between Crown and Parliament over the King's excesses and claims of divine authority. Thanks for that insight!

    The end of her reign was sad....but there were far worse ways to take one's exit from this world.

    Ordering an execution was not "the done thing in Scotland. In Scots tradition the monarch was the first among equals on a par with their people and did not condemn them to death. James obviously knew that the Tudors did execute people and probably thought that was the way in England.

    I'm sorry, but in all the portraits of James VI &1 of Scotland and England looks more like Rizzio than he did his father, Darnley or even his mother. Me thinks Mary was having an affair with her private secretary after all.

    • @manekakapoor1612

      James' son Henry Frederick looked just like Darnley.

      You know, I didn't concern myself much with the theory of Mary and Rizzio having an affair being more focused on the history of the English throne, but now that you mention the striking similarity between Rizzio and James I...OMG! Can you say dead ringer? I never compared their portraits side by side before, and one really needs to do that because the mind quickly forgets important details which uniquely identify individuals _and_ familial characteristics. The similarity is striking and obvious to me. Far more than Darnley. I wonder what would happen if these three portraits were all processed by a facial recognition program or AI software and what the probability results would be? Would Rizzio or Darnley be identified as the more likely father?

      Wow, you're right Nana. I always imagined Rizzio to be dark, with an olive complexion. Which is me just generalising from his Italian name. But he was fair, with what looked like chestnut, or dark, reddish blond hair. Both men do indeed look alike. As my 11 year old would say "That's pretty sus".🤔

      He inherits the throne from Mary not Darnley anyway. More crucially he heavily resembles all his great granfather James. Especially 1 and 3
