Show transcript
As queen, Elizabeth I had lots of problems. England had a powerful enemy, Spain, and arguments over religion had torn the country apart. Elizabeth's advisors wanted her to have children quickly so that if she died, her children could take over from her. However, Elizabeth was more concerned with solving England's problems, and never married or had children. This has led her to be remembered as a queen who put her country before herself.
