As the longest time in British history, Elizabeth II has gone through 70 years of wind and rain with Britain. Her life is a British contemporary history.

Elizabeth Alexandra Mary, formerly known as Elizabeth Alexandra Mary, was born on April 21, 1926. Her father George VI was the second son of King George V. World.

In 1936, in order to marry the American social celebrity Mrs. Simpson, Edward VIII was dismissed by his younger brother and became the king of George VI. At that time, Princess Elizabeth, as the eldest daughter of George VI, became the first heir of the throne.

On February 6, 1952, George VI was ill. Princess Elizabeth, who was visiting Africa at the time, inherited the throne at the age of 25. One year and four months later, she crowned in London and became the second "Queen Elizabeth" in the UK.

Since Elizabeth II's throne, the world's political scene has changed, such as "walking a horse to watch flowers", but she has remained motionless. During her decades of rule, Britain experienced the disintegration of the "Nikkei Empire", the British Ama Island War, the post -war recovery and decline, the Brexit, and the new crown epidemic. It can be said that Elizabeth II The life of the world is a British contemporary history.

And she also created many history. On September 9, 2015, Elizabeth II surpassed her great -grandmother Victoria and became the longest -reigned monarch in Britain.

National symbol: loved by the British people

Since modern times, the British royal family has lost real power, but the queen is still the head of state and "facade" in the nominal nominal. At the same time, she is also the queen of 15 Commonwealth countries and regions. During her reign, she visited more than 300 overseas and visited 117 countries and regions.

Elizabeth II's first visit was to go to Norway in 1955, and the most visited countries were Canada, a total of 22 times.

In a series of major occasions at home and abroad, Elizabeth II always played a role in "stabilizing the army". When the uncertain prospect of Brexit is troubled by Britain, she said that "even a small step forward can bring great differences"; when the Britain is deeply trapped in the new crown epidemic, she encourages the public to "never give up, never desperate" ...

In addition, Elizabeth II also led the royal family to gradually change, hoping to get closer to the public. For many British people, she is not only the royal family leader who is high, but also a civilian "grandmother". She is kind and indifferent, and has broken the tradition countless times, and no longer strictly assumes the image of a rigorous and conservative royal "spokesperson".

In 1962, the Buckingham Palace opened to the ordinary people for the first time; in 1997, on the day of the funeral of Princess Diana, when Lingyu passed the Buckingham Palace, Elizabeth II bowed to sorrow; in 2001, when she mourned the "911" incident in the United States, she Tears shed ...

Some media commented that the British may question the constitutional monarchy, but they never questioned their monarch.

Under the persuasion of the consultant, she changed her attitude to make Buckingham Palace lower half the flag in front of the people who gathered condolences. She also delivered a TV speech to appease the people who "lost the princess of the people".

After that, the British people's attitude towards the royal family gradually warmed. In 2002, Britain celebrated the 50th anniversary of the ascension of Elizabeth II, but for the 76 -year -old queen herself, her mood was more complicated. Because the mother of the mother and the sister Margaret died one after another this year.

More "Kan" arrived after the Queen was 93 years old.

At the end of 2019, Prince Andrew of the United Kingdom was involved in the sexual assault scandal of the Rich American Emans, which greatly affected the reputation of the British royal family and eventually resigned from the royal post. In early 2020, Prince Harry, who married American actress Meghan, announced with his wife to "run away" from the royal family, which caused widespread discussion.

By 2021, he accompanied Elizabeth II for a lifetime, and Prince Philip, who was already 99 years old, scored again. In the words of the Queen himself, the 73 -year -old partner left, leaving her life "a huge empty hole." She was dressed in black clothing and her emotions, which made British netizens boo. After the death of Prince Philip, the queen's physical condition was obviously not as good as before. In February this year, she had been "tired" due to the new crown. In recent months, she lacked a series of public activities due to physical reasons. When he recently appointed Tras as the new Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, he also broke the tradition and first received the new Prime Minister in Bar Moller, Scotland.

In his 21st birthday speech, Elizabeth, who was youth, said, "I swear to all of you, my entire life, whether it is long or short, will be committed to serving you."

More than 70 years have passed. She used her life to fulfill her commitment to Britain.
