please keep going with this series, I cannot stress enough how much it has helped so thanks. I can't recommend this channel enough!
Thanks that's really good to hear! I am doing as many as I can around full time teaching but look out for some more during the Easter break
@@TheHistoryTeacherUK please do some videos on the foreign relations as a lot of people struggle with this, thanks again for the amazing videos
what video is the one with walsingham exposing the plots, and does it mention the good and bad about it
Hi Tiani, the video you want is here ua-cam.com/video/XvlZZeTMjK0/v-deo.html
It explains each of the plots, how they were discovered and how big a threat they were. Hope it helps?
is walsingham (and dudley!) the only members of the privy council that we are required to know? eg do we have to know about william cecil? thanks for the videos your playlists are probably going to carry me through tomorrow!!
It is useful to know about those three but not compulsory.
I’ve seen a question on 2 features of William Cecil’s spy network - what importance does he have/what would you say for it? Thank you for the video btw!
Happy to help. So the two features question you just need to say two things about it. E.g one thing might be, he employed catholic priests to inform on rich landowners. You wouldn't get an importance question for Elizabeth except as a 16m then you just need to say he was responsible for catching the babbington plotters . I hope that helps
@@TheHistoryTeacherUK yes, thank you!
will you be making a video on the commercial rivalry with spain?? and sir francis drake?
I am certainly planning to! I will be moving on to relations with Spain after the next video.
@@TheHistoryTeacherUK GREAT! thank you!!
When asking for two features, wdym by that? Like is it reasons, consequences, causes?
Literally a thing about it, so for example a feature of the spy network would be most of the spies were not paid.
What do u mean the priests exchanged information for a pardon? I’m confused 1:20
Being a Catholic priest was illegal in Elizabeth's England. So if a priest was caught he could avoid punishment if he grassed up everyone he knew.
Why was it bad if people had sympathy for those who were executed? why did it stop Francis executing people? 2:30
Because governments need the agreement of the people. If everyone in the country got angry at the same time and started rioting there would be nothing the authorities could do because there are more people than authorities. This is still true today. So even authoritarian governments have to try to keep the majority of the people from protesting.
