Answer 2

Elizabeth was seen as vulnerable because of her birth. In 1558 when she became queen she was legally illegitimate. One of her first acts as queen was to establish the English Protestant church causing an uproar in Rome. Most of Europe was still Catholic and openly shown their disdain for her decision. She was an unmarried woman in an era that believed women unfit to lead. Elizabeth I never stated she was unwilling to marry, but would never seemed to settle on a suitor. There was the risk if she married a foreign royal she would lose control of her kingdom, opening the country to outside control, especially in regards to religion. Yet if she married one of her subjects it could be viewed as a weakness. Yet still remaining unmarried was a weakness all in itself. Elizabeth I brought her nation to a great level of prosperity but never knew complete stability. As most monarch's of that time, there was constant threat, real and sometimes imagined, from both within the kingdom and from afar.
