ABOUT THE QUEEN

 

Queen Elizabeth II is the second Queen of England to bear the name, the first being Queen Elizabeth I.

 

Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor was born on the 21st of April 1926. She is the Queen of the United Kingdom, a country that is shortly to Brexit the European Union.

 

She is also the monarch of 15 other countries: Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Jamaica, Barbados, the Bahamas, Grenada, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Antigua and Barbuda, Belize, and Saint Kitts and Nevis.

She became Queen when her father, King George VI, died on 6 February 1952. Since 9 September 2015, Elizabeth II has ruled longer than any other king or queen in the history of the United Kingdom. She has also ruled longer than any other living king or queen in the world as of the death of Thailand's Bhumibol Adulyadej on 13 October 2016.

 

 

 

 

 

THE QUEENS BIRTHDAYS

 

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has two birthday celebrations each year: one on her actual birth date, and the other on her “official” birthday. She was 90 in 2016.

The reason for this is down to the temperamental British weather. The tradition for monarchs to have two birthdays was started by George II back in 1748.

George was born in November and it was felt that it was too cold to host an annual birthday parade at that time.

It was decided that his birthday festivities would be combined with a military parade known as the Trooping the Colour, which was held in spring.

The tradition for two separate birthdays is still observed today.

THE HEAD OF STATE - The head of State is also a Mason according to the inside leaf of many yearbooks. It was a shock to learn of this, but the revelation may go some way to explaining why it is that some people get targeted by their local authorities such as Councils and the Police.
