For the reasons of having her husband help her govern the realm and to start a new royal family. Elizabeth was the last of her dynasty and many people in 
England hoped they would have a royal family again.

Her lack in pursuit of marriage could be because she is actually male. The story starts with Elizabeth dying as a child.

This theory is definitely far fetched and has no evidence to back it up, but it has not been ruled out.]]> 2018-02-08 16:34:44 UTC https://padlet.com/211015/385d0ewssb8h/wish/229668046 211015 https://padlet.com/211015/385d0ewssb8h/wish/231546917 Queen Elizabeth I was very conscious of her appearance. Her outfits were made to show her wealth, authority, and her power as the Queen. Her closet had plenty of gowns of rich fabrics adorned with jewels and elaborate surface detail, "which were both imposing and communicating wealth and status". In the 1600's 'Sumptuary' laws were used by Henry VIII and also used under Elizabeth. In this law, dress restrictions were listed for levels of status in society. Clothing of gold, tissue, and fur of sables in your gowns could only be worn by duchesses, marchionesses, and countesses. This law was inforced on June 15 in 1574.("Elizabeth I's Royal Wardrobe"). ]]> 2018-02-14 15:45:48 UTC https://padlet.com/211015/385d0ewssb8h/wish/231546917 211015 https://padlet.com/211015/385d0ewssb8h/wish/231566657 2018-02-14 16:16:32 UTC https://padlet.com/211015/385d0ewssb8h/wish/231566657
