hail the queen

The palace has just announced that Queen Elizabeth II has died. God save the queen! 

Eternal she is not even if for many they have known no other monarchy in her lifetime. Queen Elizabeth II, who reigned over the U.K. for 70 years, dies at 96.

Her sovereignty began in February 1952 after the death of her father, King George VI and ended today at Balmoral Castle, her estate in the Scottish Highlands

Queen Elizabeth served as a constant and reassuring figure in Britain and on the world stage as she served to lead her family, monarchy, and country through a period of profound shifts in geopolitical power and national identity.
