In the Elizabethen Era a lot of things were happening in the world related to crime, religion, war, and art. I decided to talk about art and a famous artist in this era named Philip Sydney. Philip Sydney was born November 30th, 1554 to an aristocratic family, which is a family that is noble(Alexander Para 2). Philip Sydney was gifted in the art and he was also talented solider. He started his studies at Christ church in Oxford university in February 1568 where he remained for three years but never got a degree(Alexander Para 3). Shdney heard about queen Elizabeth's marriage to a catholic and he told a French duke and he protested which didn't matter because they did not get married(Alexander Para 5). Sydney died at age 31 from a gun shot wound.

From 1550-1650 many historical events took place within the time period. The variety of events ranged from the execution of Charles I, to the first English settlement in Jamestown Virginia. During Elizabeth's reign the world changed dramatically. The history and well known authors such as William Shakespeare and other well known writers. Within this time there were Chinese dynasty's such as the Ming and Qing dynasty. Just before the time period studied the Ottoman Empire of Saudi Arabia was made and was a threat to most of Europe. In Asia the country India had a powerful empire called the Mughal empire. They were a threat because the had lots of goods and the were in the middle of Asia where traders coming and going to China and Europe over land and sea could stop and trade they were also rich in money. The history of this time period changed the world in every place possible.
