Yes, it was!.

The Tudor era began with the reign of Henry VII, the first Tudor, in 1485, and ended with the death of his granddaughter Elizabeth I in 1603!. Before that, the family of Plantagenets reigned over England!.

Henry VII's son was Henry VIII

Henry VIII's son Edward VI then became King, but died when he was a teenager

Then came a very short rule, nine days, by Henry VIII's great-niece Lady Jane Grey

After that, Henry VIII's first daughter Mary I ruled

Finally, Henry VIII's second daughter Elizabeth I ruled

These monarchs were all of the Tudor dynasty, or family!.

We define Elizabeth's rule, from 1558 until her death in 1603, as the Elizabethan era!. She had no children; the crown passed to James VI of Scotland (James I of England), and this new dynasty, or family, was called the Stuarts!.

We call Elizabeth's rule the Elizabethan era as she was Queen during a time that saw many advancements in art and culture, as well as foreign discoveries!. She was a great Queen in many ways, and gave her first name to the time she reigned!. But she was also Elizabeth Tudor, granddaughter to the founder of the dynasty of Henry VII!.

Hope that helps!.
