In a Tudor world, Liz - young, sassy, supposed virgin and the Queen of England - cannot stand the drawbacks of sitting on the throne as a woman; her overbearing councillors ignore her forward-thinking policies and constantly attempt to marry her off to boring and unappealing suitors. However, when she finally takes decisions into her own hands and rejects King Philip of Spain's proposal of marriage, he declares war and assembles the largest fleet in history: The Spanish Armada. With her people furious and invasion imminent, how will Liz regain her people's trust and save her country?
