Boudicca was a queen of the British Iceni tribe. Her husband was an independent ally of Rome, and in his will he left his kingdom jointly to his daughters and the Roman Emperor. After the king’s death however, the Romans didn’t abide by his will and took all of the kingdom for themselves. Boudicca and her daughters experienced a lot of maltreatment by the romans, until Boudicca built up an army and drove the invading romans back. The Romans weren’t able to again be secure on the British Isles until after Boudicca’s death.
