In which historical context did Boudicca lead her revolt?

Boudicca led her revolt against the Romans in AD 60-61 after the death of her husband, Prasutagus, who was the king of the Iceni tribe. Following his death, the Romans annexed Iceni territory, leading to Boudicca's anger and an uprising. This revolt was a response to the increasing oppression and exploitation of the native tribes by the Roman Empire, which had been expanding its control over Britain since the invasion in AD 43. Boudicca's revolt became significant as it was one of the most notable examples of resistance against Roman occupation, highlighting the struggle for autonomy and the harsh realities faced by indigenous people under foreign rule. Boudicca's leadership and her initial successes in battle made her an enduring symbol of British resistance against invaders.

The other contexts mentioned do not relate to Boudicca's time or her actions. The Viking incursions occurred several centuries later, the English Civil War took place in the 17th century, and the Industrial Revolution came much later in the 18th and 19th centuries. Thus, the historical context of Boudicca's revolt is firmly situated in the conflicts between the native Celtic tribes and the Roman Empire.
