The Queens were great for a reason. Each Queen has contributed to English history, whether in medieval times or the modern era. Instead of choosing their gender duties and being a shadow of their husbands, these Queens led their way. While there are many, let&#8217;s know some of them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><strong>Boudica (c.30-60 AD)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Boudica was the Celtic queen of the British Iceni tribe of modern-day East Anglia, Britain, who led a revolt against the Roman Empire in 60\/61 CE. She fought fearlessly against the Romans. Although she was defeated in the battle, she took her life by drinking poison. She believed its better to drink poison rather than be taken alive by Romans. Boudica has a special place in British folk history often remembered for her courage and might.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><strong>Bertha of Kent (c.565-602)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Saint Bertha or Saint Aldeberge was the queen of Kent and the daughter of the King of Paris. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She came to be categorized as a saint for her role in establishment and considered one of the greatest queens of England in history. She restored a Christian church in Canterbury, dedicating it to Saint Martin. The present St Martin&#8217;s situated at Canterbury occupies the same site. Moreover, Anglo-Saxon England records indicate that Saint Bertha had two children.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><strong>Emma of Normandy (c.980-1052)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emma of Normandy was the wife of two kings of Anglo-Saxon England -\/Ethelred the Unready<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and Cnut and she was the mother of two other English kings. She was a key political figure at that time. After her husband\u2019s death, she continued to participate in politics during her son\u2019s reign. Emma became the \u201cfirst of the medieval queens\u201d to be depicted in portraiture.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><strong>Eleanor of Aquitaine (c.1122-1204)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eleanor of Aquitaine was married at age 15 to King Louis VII of France, and the couple had two daughters.
