Boudicca was a queen of the Iceni tribe which occupied land in the eastern Midlands. She lived at a time when only men could be rulers and own land. But she was a native British person (a Celt), and these people did believe in the rights of women.
When her husband died, the Romans wanted to remove all lands from Boudicca as she was just a woman, and she and her children suffered much abuse by the Roman authorities. As a result she began an uprising which was, at first, successful. She and her army moved south and burned Londinium (London) to the ground. However, when the Roman army arrived she was beaten in battle, took poison and died.
There were no further revolts in Roman Britain.
