Mary Queen of Scots by Hourly History

Mary, Queen of Scots
Mary Stuart was born into a powerful royal dynasty that was at war with the rest of Europe and with itself. Mary's ascent to the throne was disarmingly easy and she reached adulthood completely unprepared for the plots and betrayals she would be subject to. As the head of a resolutely unstable country, Mary struggled to maintain her grip on the precarious crown on her head and was removed from the throne by an armed rebellion.
