#hmm interesting when you consider how much victoria hated elizabeth #'SHE KILLED MY BELOVED ANCESTRESS IN COLD BLOOD AND NOW I'M PETTY AS HELL ABOUT IT.'#girl...that was 250 years ago #and it's not like elizabeth did it on a whim #'it's not personal. it's strictly business.'#anne boleyn #queen victoria #historicwomendaily #history #*

FAVOURITE HISTORICAL FIGURES 1/∞ ↳ Matilda of Flanders, Queen of England and Duchess of Normandy

❛ The coronation ordo for Matilda incorporated three important new phrases; 'constituit reginam popolo' - the Queen is placed by God among the people; 'regalis imperii ... esse participem' - the Queen shares royal power; and 'laetatur gens Anglica domini imperio regenda et reginae virtutis providential gubernanda' - the English people are blessed to be ruled by the power and the virtue of the Queen. ❜ Queens Consort: England's Medieval Queens by Lisa Hilton. ❛ Matilda's achievements as Duchess of Normandy and Queen of England had been considerable. ... Far from being a meek and submissive wife and consort, subject entirely to her husbands will, she had wielded authority in her own right and had enjoyed an independence of action matched by few of her contemporaries. ❜ Matilda by Tracy Borman.
