Queen Elizabeth I Had a Personal Spy Network!

Queen Elizabeth I had a secret spy network to protect her throne. Her top spy, Sir Francis Walsingham, uncovered plots using intercepted letters, coded messages, and undercover agents. Their biggest success was exposing the Babington plot to assassinate Elizabeth and put Mary Queen of Scots on the throne. The scheme failed and Mary was executed. Elizabeths spies kept her safe for 44 years. Could you have been one of her agents? Drop a magnifying glass emoji if you think so. #History #SpyFacts #QueenElizabeth #TudorHistory #DidYouKnow
