Edward's will was set aside within weeks of his death and Mary became queen, deposing and executing Jane. During Mary's reign, Elizabeth was imprisoned for nearly a year on suspicion of supporting Protestant rebels. </p><p>Upon her half-sister's death in 1558, Elizabeth succeeded to the throne and set out to rule by good counsel.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>c<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> She depended heavily on a group of trusted advisers led by <a href="/wiki/William_Cecil,_1st_Baron_Burghley" title="William Cecil, 1st Baron Burghley">William Cecil</a>, whom she created <a href="/wiki/Baron_Burghley" class="mw-redirect" title="Baron Burghley">Baron Burghley</a>.

After the pope <a href="/wiki/Regnans_in_Excelsis" title="Regnans in Excelsis">declared her illegitimate</a> in 1570, which in theory released English Catholics from allegiance to her, several conspiracies threatened her life, all of which were defeated with the help of her ministers' secret service, run by Sir <a href="/wiki/Francis_Walsingham" title="Francis Walsingham">Francis Walsingham</a>.

Towards the end of her reign, a series of economic and military problems weakened her popularity. Elizabeth is acknowledged as a charismatic performer ("Gloriana") and a dogged survivor ("Good Queen Bess") in an era when government was ramshackle and limited, and when monarchs in neighbouring countries faced internal problems that jeopardised their thrones. After the short, disastrous reigns of her half-siblings, her 44 years on the throne provided welcome stability for the kingdom and helped to forge a sense of national identity.<sup id="cite_ref-starkey5_6-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-starkey5-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Early_life">Early life</h2></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:HenryAndAnneBoleynPortraits.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f8/HenryAndAnneBoleynPortraits.jpg/290px-HenryAndAnneBoleynPortraits.jpg" decoding="async" width="290" height="201" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f8/HenryAndAnneBoleynPortraits.jpg/435px-HenryAndAnneBoleynPortraits.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f8/HenryAndAnneBoleynPortraits.jpg/580px-HenryAndAnneBoleynPortraits.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1282" data-file-height="887" /></a><figcaption>Elizabeth's parents, <a href="/wiki/Henry_VIII" title="Henry VIII">Henry VIII</a> and <a href="/wiki/Anne_Boleyn" title="Anne Boleyn">Anne Boleyn</a>.
