Mary I, also known as Mary Tudor, was Queen of England and Ireland.

Mary I (18 February 1516 - 17 November 1558), also known as Mary Tudor, and as ""Bloody Mary"" by her Protestant opponents, was Queen of England and Ireland from July 1553 until her death in 1558. She is best known for her vigorous attempt to reverse the English Reformation, which had begun during the reign of her father, Henry VIII. Her attempt to restore to the Church the property confiscated in the previous two reigns was largely thwarted by Parliament, but during her five-year reign, Mary had over 280 religious dissenters burned at the stake in the Marian persecutions.
