Question

Which heir of Henry VIII restored England to the Anglican Church and ruled during the Spanish Armada?

Answer 1

Answer:  Queen Elizabeth I

Explanation:

Elizabeth ruled England from 1558 to 1603.  She was the daughter of King Henry VIII and his second wife, Anne Boleyn.  After Henry VIII died, he was succeeded by his lone male heir, Edward VI, who was only 9 years old at the time he came to the throne.  Edward was not healthy and died as a teenager.  He was succeeded by Mary I, who was the daughter of Henry VIII and his first wife, Catherine of Aragon.  Mary returned the English church to Roman Catholicism and persecuted Protestants.  After the death of Mary,  Elizabeth came to the throne and restored the Anglican Church.  She also turned back the Spanish Armada sent by Philip II, who had been legal husband to Mary I.
