Well, since we're very good with this whodunnit thing, I decided to launch this little game here.
It's pretty simple. I am someone (person, cartoon, book character, whatever) and everyone else can have a guess at who I am.
The one who guesses it has the next round, and we'll try to guess on him/her.
I hope this works. :-)
To start, I'll give you all one hint: I'm a real person.

Real (non-fictional) female who is dead

European but
NOT FROM:
France, Spain, Italy, Romania, Croatia, Russia, Poland, Ukraine or Scandinavia.

She was royalty and known for political and to a lesser extent, social issues.

She isn't a nun.

Nope sorry

Interesting. I started running down a list of Britain's queens back then and realised that most of them weren't actually from Britain.

Matilda/Maud? (as in Henry I's daughter, fought civil war with Stephen)

Elizabeth Woodville? Anne Neville?

Was she a British princess who married into another country?

Did she die more than 750 years ago?

Was she English? Welsh? Scottish?

She died longer than 750 years ago.

She is ''British'' however isn't English, Welsh or Scottish though lived in what is now England.

Boudica?? (Y'know, the Saxon [I think] queen who took on the Romans and won?? (Sorry if my spelling's a bit off. ;-)
