Jacobean period (1603 - 1625) (4 jun 1603 ano – 4 out 1625 ano)

Descrição:

The Jacobean era was the time when James VI was King of England. James I ruled between 1603 and 1625 and the time is called the 'Jacobean' era because Jacobus is the Latin version of the name 'James.'

Jacobean art and culture was heavily influenced by the art and culture of the Elizabethan era. It was also influenced by ancient Greece and Rome.
During the Jacobean era, England and Scotland officially got together and became one country - the United Kingdom. But it wasn't all happy times.
During an event we now call the Gunpowder Plot, a group of religious extremists tried to blow up the English Parliament building and kill King James on November 5, 1605. Luckily for James, it didn't work out.

On the continent of Europe, the Thirty Years War started during the Jacobean era, but King James kept England out of it.
