How and why did people try to assassinate Elizabeth?

Both religious and political - Elizabeth had set up an Anglican Church which was moderately protestant - her aim was to set up a church which would be acceptable to all Protestants. The problem was she was the head of the Church and by doing this excluded all Catholics. Elizabeth tried to enforce this with an Act of Uniformity in 1552 which enraged many Catholics because if they were not Anglican they would not be considered loyal subjects. This helped to give a reason for Spain to try and attack England with the Armada in 1558. Moreover, Mary Queen of the Scots was a possible Catholic heir and the French wanted her to dethrone Elizabeth in a coup.


Why was Mary queen of Scots heir to the English throne AND WHY was this A problem?

She was heir to the throne, and also a Catholic so many people who were Catholics in England supported her. The problem was Elizabeth was afraid that she might try to overthrow her so she sent spies in to where Mary was being held prisoner and they discovered a plot to overthrow Elizabeth. Mary and a man called Anthony Babington were executed for treason.

If you mean Queen Elizabeth I then sort of as she was brought up a protestant and wasn't really bothered about religion during her reign. Some catholics however did try to ovethrow her including the Mary Queen of Scots who she executed. If you mean Elizabeth II then she is christian but I don't imagine her being deeply religious or anything overdramtic
