Historically, the Commonwealth was an evolutionary outgrowth of the British Empire. The traditional British policy of allowing considerable self-government in its colonies led to the existence by the 19th century of several dependent states that were populated to a significant degree by Europeans accustomed to forms of parliamentary rule and that possessed large measures of sovereignty.

Mary Queen of Scots

Slide 26 - Slide

Another contestant for the throne, Mary Stuart, granddaughter of Elizabeth's aunt Margaret and James IV (King of Scotland).
Mary tried to seize the English throne with help from France.
Elizabeth, of course, didn't want Mary to claim the throne and Mary's unwise marital (married crown prince of France) and political actions provoked rebellion among the Scottish nobles, forcing her to flee to England (she was a Roman catholic whilst Scotland and its nobles had turned protestant), where she was eventually beheaded as a Roman Catholic threat to the English throne.
Those Roman Catholics who considered Elizabeth illegitimate because they regarded Henry VIII’s divorce from Catherine of Aragon and his marriage to Anne Boleyn invalid even looked upon Mary as the lawful queen. 
James I of England

 =James VI of Scotland
  • House of Stuart
  • Witch-hunting
   (James's obsession)
  • Gunpowder plot by Catholics
