They would have had many ways of amusing themselves in their spare time, some of them rather cruel to our modern sensibilities. For example, bear baiting, bull baiting, dog fighting, cockerel fighting, hunting with dogs and hawks, jousting, theatre, cards, dice, Board Games like Chess, dancing (Henry VIII and Elizabeth I loved dancing, and both danced well), music (again something Henry VIII and Elizabeth I excelled at).

Why did the Elizabethans believe in the need for a strong and just ruler?
Doesn't every culture want a guiding power to defend and guide them... obviously this character must be strong in the fact that a ruler must make decisions that affect many people and could get them all killed. The Elizabethans had a constant threat of assimilation from the French so a corrupt or weak ruler would cause England to become part of France.
