The English Mercurie
Alright kiddo, today we're going to learn about a thing called the English Mercurie.
Basically, a long time ago, people didn't have the internet or phones to get their news. Instead, they relied on newspapers. The English Mercurie was one of the very first newspapers ever published.
Every week, the people who made the English Mercurie would write down all the important things that happened in England and other countries. They would also share things like gossip and fun stories.
People would pay money to buy a copy of the English Mercurie so they could stay informed about what was happening around them. It was kind of like having a really big and important friend who could tell you everything that was going on in the world.
And that, little friend, is what the English Mercurie was all about!
