She was good to some people; the catholics, but was extremely wicked to any protestants. She had them; burned to the sake, hung, drawn and quartered and also had many people beheaded. If you were a protestant then, you would sit in the dark shadows, and wait for Elizabeth to be the Queen. (Elizabeth was a protestant queen, also known as the greatest ruler of all time.)

Mary Tudor, also known as Bloody Mary, is often remembered for her persecution of Protestants during her reign as Queen of England from 1553 to 1558. However, it is important to note that she did make some positive contributions as well. Mary Tudor restored Catholicism as the official religion of England, which was important to her personally and to many of her subjects. She also attempted to strengthen England's ties with Spain through her marriage to King Philip II, which had diplomatic benefits for the country. Additionally, she worked to improve the administration of justice and the welfare of the poor during her reign.

Although Mary Tudor was nicknamed Bloody Mary, she was a very kind woman who loved children. She was also very well educated, and could read Latin at the age of nine. At the age of twelve she translated St. Thomas's 'Aquinas' from Latin to English.

Do you mean

'Mary Tudor, Queen of France and Duchess of Suffolk, sister to King Henry VIII of England, daughter to King Henry VII of England and Elizabeth of York'

or

'Mary Tudor, Queen of England, sister to King Edward VI of England and the future Queen Elizabeth I of England, daughter of King Henry VIII of England and Katherine of Aragon (known in her native Spanish as Catlina de Aragon)'

These two people (Aunt (Mary Tudor the sister of Henry) and neice (Mary Tudor the daughter of Henry)) are commonly confused with each other. Each made their own separate accomplishments and really didn't know each other very well-if they knew each other at all.

-------------

Queen Mary I (assuming this is who the question is about) had several accomplishments. She reconciled England with the pope (an accomplishment, even if you do not like her doing it), extended royal control of Ireland, worked on extending English trade with continental countries, and reformed the coinage so the economy stood on a firmer foundation. She also succeeded in having a large number of unrepentant protestants executed, hence her name, "Bloody Mary."
