The marriage of Princess Elizabeth Stuart of England to Frederick V, Elector of the Palatine, in 1613 was a significant event in European history, with far-reaching political and religious implications. Elizabeth, the daughter of King James I of England (James VI of Scotland), and Frederick, a leading Protestant prince in the Holy Roman Empire, were wed in a lavish ceremony that symbolized the alliance between Protestant powers in Europe and that intertwined the fates of England and the Protestant cause in Europe.
