What policies did Walsingham oversee?

  • Religious, Domestic and Foreign

  • Agriculture and Finance

  • Education and Culture

  • Military and Defense

Answer

Walsingham saw domestic matters as inherently connected with religious and foreign policies. He believed a strong economy and a united, protestant England would bolster England’s position in international diplomacy and religious struggles across Europe. Walsingham supported colonization efforts that would boost the economy, and he saw the conflict with Spain as an extension of religious differences at home.
