HM Queen Elizabeth II of England died at 96 year-old, the longest-lived queen in history, with a legacy that will remain engraved in history. She is therefore dead the last great Queen. In over 96 years of life, 70 of which spent on the throne of St.
James, HM Queen Elizabeth II has retained the throne between two millennia, ascending to a destiny that transcends history. The official announcement came with a note from Buckingham Palace: “Her Majesty died peacefully this afternoon.
The King and Queen consort will stay at Balmoral tonight and return to London tomorrow.” Liz Truss, the new British Prime Minister, who spoke to the nation from Downing Street, said: “Queen Elizabeth’s death is a shock to the nation and to the whole world, she was a rock upon which the country was built.
A great era begins, God save the King! And let’s support him, now loyalty and devotion to Charles III.” Charles of Wales thus becomes HM the King Charles III.
Queen Elizabeth II loved her resences, some more than others
Queen Elizabeth II loved her resences, some more than others.
Reportedly her favorite of hers, Balmoral Castle in Scotland is a building steeped in the history of England, and is the place where Elizabeth received the new British Prime Minister Liz Truss. The other properties are obviously Buckingham Palace in Westminster, and Windsor Castle.
Buckingham Palace in Westminster, has 775 rooms including 19 for state activities, 92 offices and 52 bedrooms, it can be visited by tourists at certain times of the year. Windsor Castle has a thousand rooms. Like Buckingham, it is a building that belongs to the Crown.
Other mansions include Holyrood Palace in Scotland, the official residence, a former monastery dating from 1128, and also Hillsborough Castle from 1770, Ireland. Since her accession to the throne in 1952, most of her visits Elizabeth has made to Canada, a member of the Commonwealth.
In 1979 Elizabeth traveled the length and breadth of the Middle East, touching Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and Oman even though it was not a matter of state travel. Elizabeth II met 14 different US presidents.
