People Of The Eighty Years' War
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...

Elizabeth was the last of the five House of Tudor monarchs and is sometimes referred to as the "Virgin Queen".

Rowland Whyte
Rowland Whyte (died after 1626) was an Elizabethan official and businessman, whose letters provide important evidence about the latter stages of the life of Queen Elizabeth I and the transition to the rule of James I. The letters were first published in 1746 as ''Letters and Memorials of State'', edited by Arthur Collins. Life and career Whyte was the son of Richard Whyte of Beaumaris, Anglesey. He was born in Anglesey and in 1601 wrote a letter asking to be appointed as muster-master (militia recruiter) for the area. Before that he seems to have travelled on the continent and gained a reputation with the Sidney family for honesty and efficiency in business. He worked for the Sidneys in the 1590s, possibly serving in some military capacity at one point.Lisle C. John, "Rowland Whyte, Elizabethan Letter-Writer", ''Studies in the Renaissance'', 1961, pp.217-235.
