#OnThisDay, 1 Oct 1553, Mary Tudor is crowned Queen of England: the first queen of England to get as far as a coronation and to rule in her own name.

During her reign, 280 religious dissenters were burned at the stake by her order, earning her the nickname ‘bloody Mary’ by her Protestant opponents.
