About This Quiz

One of the many things that England is known for is their royalty, and there has been a very long line of royals when it comes to this country. Among the kings who first ruled there were just as many powerful queens. These women have supported their husbands, produced heirs, caused utter and complete destruction and sometimes, have set new trends. After they were wives, they became rulers and did not need men to ensure their country's success. So which of the queens were you?

Are you the Virgin Queen, Elizabeth I? She had no children and no husband and England was better for it. She managed to do what many men before her could not. Are you Anne? Not the one who married Henry VII, but the one who married Stuart. She was determined to leave an heir and even though she wasn't successful, she still left her mark. Or are you Victoria? She impacted her country greatly, culturally, as did the death of her consort. Or maybe you're someone else. 

If you want to find out which queen of England you are, go ahead and get started on this quiz. Will you be remembered as the woman who was married to her country or the one who almost brought about its destruction? Take this quiz to see which queen you are!
