The First Challenge:
Catharine of Aragon to Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Hmmmm.... Let's see... She married Ferdinand of Castille, then the two of them chased the Islamic and Jewish people out of Spain, thereby destroying classical Spanish civilisation, but creating a bellicose naval power. Spain then greatly expanded its maritime trade routes, and it was due to Spanish sea trade that Coleridge got his opium, on which he was tripping when he wrote his best stuff. How's that for revisionist history?
