He didn't think a girl could be strong enough to rule a country and protect it from foreign invaders. That princess grew up to be Queen Elizabeth I of England, and proved him wrong. In the 1500's, while Elizabeth was queen, Spain was the richest and strongest country in the world. The only country that challenged Spain's power was England. The king of Spain hated Queen Elizabeth, and thought he could defeat her. So he gathered all his warships and sent them north to attack. Elizabeth made Sir Francis Drake her royal admiral, and sent him and her tiny navy out to defend her kingdom. Even though the English were outnumbered, they whipped the Spanish navy. Elizabeth welcomed her navy home and gave Sir Francis Drake a small golden ship as a present of thanks. Your quest is to retrieve the golden ship and bring it back here..."

I'm gonna put you up ahead in a tunnel there, with you on one side and the steam drill on the other. We'll see who drives further.' John Henry slung his hammer over his shoulder. 'That'll be me,' he said, and followed the foreman up the line. John Henry took his position. 'Go,' shouted the foreman, and John Henry started swinging with all his might. The steam drill chugged and drilled, and when the smoke cleared John Henry had driven 15 feet through the rock. And the steam drill had only gone nine. The other Gandy dancers cheered, and lifted John Henry on their shoulders. The railroad retired John Henry's hammer, and it found its way to the temple. Your quest is to retrieve his hammer and bring it here..."

Within nine months over 10,000 other prospectors came to California from all over the world to pan for gold. Some went around South America in creaky old ships. Their food was filled with bugs and their ships were often wrecked in terrible storms. Others took a shorter route, through Panama, battling their way over land through swamps and jungle, and over the mountains to Panama City where they hopped a ship to California. Some went by wagon train, through Indian territory and Death Valley. By 1850, most of the gold was gone. Unfortunately John Sutter, the man who started it all, died penniless because he'd lost the secret map to his mine. Your quest is to retrieve that map and bring it here..."
