Tudor Spies

Travel back in time to the birthplace of modern espionage: the
court of Queen Elizabeth I and sneak into the world of Tudor
Spies!

The chaos in religious policy and its political implications laid
the foundation for treachery, betrayal, and deception. And one
element made this time, particularly as we move into the reign of
Elizabeth I, a hotbed of what was then called “spiery”: that
element was literacy. People now had the ability to deliver
messages across distances and in large groups.
 
Literacy became a weapon in the war of religion. Once literacy
makes communication this widespread, there’s an immediate desire
to control it. Enter the spies.


History shows us what's possible.
