The printed panel compares Cleopatra VII, Elizabeth I and Catherine II, who lived in different societies and periods. Cleopatra VII governed ancient Egypt from 51 to 30 BCE. Elizabeth I ruled England from 1558 to 1603, a reign associated with political and religious tensions, the arts and the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588. Catherine II ruled Russia from 1762 to 1796 and is associated with imperial expansion and educational and cultural initiatives. These are historical outlines, not evidence that all three had identical powers or achievements. Compare place, period and the nature of authority before explaining a personal judgement about leadership. Source: printed Global Success 12 cultural panel, page 17, in the school PDF.
For a further contrast, Elizabeth II became queen of the United Kingdom in 1952 and died in 2022. Her constitutional role was not that of an elected head of government. Do not confuse Elizabeth I with Elizabeth II. Source: https://www.royal.uk/queen-elizabeth-ii.
