[10e] Name this monarch whom Stoker believed was being literal when she claimed that she had the “heart and stomach of a king” before Francis Drake faced the Spanish Armada.
ANSWER: Elizabeth I [accept Elizabeth Tudor; prompt on Elizabeth]
[10h] Stoker was closer to the truth in discussing how Stephen the Little became Tsar of this non-Russian country by claiming to be Peter III. Danilo I secularized this prince-bishopric and united its clan-based zbor assembly.
