About Elizabeth I
She was born on the 7th of September in 1533, and came into power in 1558 when her sister, Mary I died. She had originally been taken out of the succession just like her sister was, but the will was set aside to find a ruler. Elizabeth's reign was known as the Elizabethan age and was a great time for English writers and other things. She was very intelligent and had great policies for foreign affairs and religion. She was a protestant and helped bring England back to it's glory. She was most famous for her revival of Protestantism in England, and for bringing the Golden Age of England.

Accomplishments and their effect on England and Ireland
After her sister got rid of Protestantism, Elizabeth brought it back during her reign and brought the Golden Age in England. Her reign had a very positive effect on England and Ireland because of great balance with just about everything.
