When Queen Elizabeth I says that she has “the heart and stomach of a king,” she means that —?

When Queen Elizabeth says this, she is asserting that she has the same qualities and abilities to lead a country as a king does. Whether this is courage, leadership skills, a love for one's country, or wisdom, Queen Elizabeth is basically stating that queens are no less qualified to rule countries than kings. Hope this helps.
