Why did Mary Elizabeth's half-sister and the Elizabeth the first not get along?
Mary I and Elizabeth I did not get along because Mary blamed Elizabeth's mother, Anne, for disposing her mother, Catherine, and for taking Mary's title of Princess. During Elizabeth mother, Anne's, reign, Anne encouraged her ladies and maids to beat Mary and Mary was forced to serve the young Elizabeth. Mary then viewed her half-sister as she did her stepmother, believing that Elizabeth would be just like Anne Boleyn. Then there was also the fact that no matter how much Mary tried to say that Elizabeth was not her father's daughter, Elizabeth looked and acted more like Henry VIII than Mary did. Elizabeth was also a Protestant and Mary was a devout Catholic.

it was used as a form of Propaganda to legitimize her claim to the throne. by claiming herself as "Daughter of Amun" in areas like Dier el bahri, The red chapel and in the mortuary Temple, she showed more masculine power which was the tradition of the Egyptian royal family.

Elizabeth was the third in line for the throne after Henry VIII's death. She was a protestant heir to the throne and Mary who was the Catholic monarch before her was afraid that she would attempt to over throw her and place herself on the throne as a Protestant Queen. Mary imprisoned Elizabeth in 1554 because she was thought to have been involved in a Protestant plot against Mary that was lead by Sir Thomas Wyatt. She was released a short time later, I believe it was 8 weeks later, with no charge but was placed under house arrest.

Who was more beautiful Elizabeth I or Mary Queen of Scots?
Both were considered beautiful at the time, although I believe that Mary was said to be a bit more pretty of the two. It is an extremely interesting questions because both women possed an almost identical colouring. Both had long thick lustrous glossy red-gold hair, large and expressive dark sexually magnetic eyes, an extremely fine pale complexion and rosy lips. And both had very slender figures. Although personally I think Mary Stuart being ten years younger then Elizabeth and also having a very cozened lifestyle, especially compared to the emotionally unstable and traumatic lifestyle of Elizabeth, was the prettier of the two. Elizabeth's features,although beautiful were often very hard and strong. And whereof Mary dressed in colours that emphasised her beauty. Elizabeth would often dress to make a political point of view.

She was second in succession to the throne (after Mary) and therefore an attractive marriage prospect for ambitious nobles. This was especially dangerous since Edward was a minor and England rules by regents. Her flirtation with Edward's uncle Thomas Seymour brought suspicion on her.
