Well indeed it was the Pope who upped the ante with his Regnans in Excelsis. It made life for English recusants increasingly difficult. All the later plots against Elizabeth were inspired by it.

And the Bull of 1570 was encouraged by an English Catholic exile, Cardinal Allen and was in response to the failed Catholic Rising of the North in 1569.

Queen Elizabeth I toured the country in regional visits known as progresses. She often rode on horseback rather than by carriage. Elizabeth made at least 25 progresses during her reign.

The Dutch rebels offered queen Elizabeth sovereignty over Holland & Zeeland but the queen had trouble enough with Ireland and her Northern Catholics and also did not want a war with the Catholic powers of Europe.
