Who received the throne after Queen Elizabeth 1 died?
Amongst her most notable victories, Queen Elizabeth I successfully restored England to the Protestant faith. Many plots to overtake Elizabeth and convert the country back to Catholicism were devised, but failed. Mary, Queen of Scots, a devout Catholic and Elizabeth's cousin, was at the heart of these schemes. The likely successor of Elizabeth, Mary was imprisoned for 19 years for her role in the rebellion. This made her an attractive potential pawn for the likes of enemies such as Phillip II, King of Spain. Yet Mary would never be used to gain a foothold against Elizabeth, as she was executed in 1587. With the death of Mary and having no children of her own, Elizabeth was succeeded by the Protestant James VI of Scotland, son of Mary Queen of Scots, who later became King James I of England.

Who was a bigger threat to Elizabeth Mary Queen of Scott of the Spanish Armada?
My opinion is the Spanish Amanda because they were the ones that had all of the ships, men, weapon's... Sines quite a few years Phillip ii was asking Elizabeth to be his wife but Elizabeth always refuse Phillip was from Spain so he made the Spanish Armada. They say that the had been preparing for the invasion to England for 30 years so they were convinced they were going to win. Mary I of Scotland had Elizabeth's Royal blood so she was her cousin. She was entitled to the throne so she wanted Elizabeth to go so that was Elizabeth's problem. Also the people of England was mostly Catholic and so was Mary so that is a very big advantage.

Was bloody Mary killed by elizabeth the first?
Bloody Mary was not killed by Elizabeth. In fact, Mary was insane before her death and that was what made her health deteriorate. She was so blood-thirsty and wanted to get rid of all possible Anglicans in England, even if it meant massacre. She was always suspicious of Elizabeth, thinking that she may overthrow her. On her deathbed, Mary asked Elizabeth if she was a Catholic, where Elizabeth answered yes. When Mary died, Elizabeth claimed that it was all a show and supported the Anglicans like her father Henry VIII.

What place were Mary and Elizabeth at when she said blessed is the fruit of your womb?
Roman Catholic AnswerThe Visitation to which you are referring was when Mary was visiting her kinswoman, Elizabeth. Elizabeth was "in her sixth month" and Mary had just conceived Jesus after The Annunication. The "blessed is the fruit of thy womb" comment was made by Elizabeth in Luke 1:42. At that time Mary was at the house of Zachary and Elizabeth which was in the hill country, in a town of Juda.

How was Elizabeth related to Mary mother of Jesus?
There is no specific relationship given in the Scriptures. Many have said that they are cousins, but there is no data to back this up. Since there is a large age difference between the two, my guess would be that Elizabeth could be Mary's aunt, great aunt, or a cousin once or twice removed.
Why do people think that Queen Mary of Scots was 1st cousin to elizabeth the first when in fact they have the same father king Henry the 8th which made the 2 queens half sisters?
No !! Mary Queen of Scots & Elizabeth do not have the same father ! Elizabeths 1/2 sister is Mary Tudor, Queen Mary I. Mary Queen of Scots is Mary Stuart, mother of James VI of Scotland, James I of England. She is Elizabeths cousin not her half sister. Mary I is Elizabeths 1/2 sister. Mary I & Mary, Queen of Scots are two (2) different people !
