Queen Elizabeth II, who has died at age 96 after the longest reign in British history, will be mourned around the globe as one of the last monarchs born to a classic age of European royalty, when kings and queens wielded genuine political power.

Elizabeth's death comes seven months after she marked the 70th anniversary of her accession to the throne, yet another milestone achievement in the remarkable life of a queen who, though reluctantly thrust into the spotlight at a young age, won almost universal praise for her steadfast dedication to duty.

Johnson won the UK's Conservative Party leadership contest and replaced Theresa May, who was forced into resigning after members of her Cabinet lost confidence in her inability to secure the UK's departure from the European Union.Hide Caption 50 of 66 Photos: The life of Queen Elizabeth II An image of the Queen appears in London's Piccadilly Square, alongside a message of hope from her special address to the nation in April 2020.

LET HARRY GRIEVE YOU IMPOSSIBLE PEOPLE. Let Harry grieve

Impressive! Rest in peace! 🙏 I have great respect 🙇 for the life's work of the Queen! 🙏

I'm tired of all this woke new generation that has yet to contribute anything to society. This woman dedicated her life to honor and duty! She never faltered! She never brought shame to herself or her country! I choose to mourn that!

Many years I’ve heard about the Queen Elizabeth 11, she is a mentor, a mother to all and to the motherless, I sent my condolences to the Royal family!! And to the ppl in British and all over the world mourning! The unity and love still stands for the British ❤️🙏

Sad news

Time for a Republic?

No who cares

As usual, CNN got the facts wrong. Elizabeth was the SECOND longest reigning monarch .

Rest In Peace

Children of all Elements and lovers of Truth, let's bury Queen Elizabeth II according to Tradition. i bury her according to Tradition, put all requirements and ikenga ewu mother goat fine. May she resurrect and reincarnate if possible. So shall it be.

Africa celebrates

My the Lord receive her in the Heavenly Glory Amen!

Queen Elizabeth is the last respectable monarch

Her Majesty, Queen II The glorious departed, are respected and celebrated, especially by the nation She committed to serve selflessly. She presided over many countries dedicated to serving, and giving a sterling service to Her people. Africa mourn Her passing too, we know Her.

How sad

The British monarchy hasn't wielded genuine political power since King John. The Magna Carta and several other documents since have since stripped away much of the power normally associated with a monarch.

Tbh i forgot she existed and now this. I'll respect her death, although i didn't know her well enough to mourn her death. After all i was thinking she was like 107 by now. 😅

Ok

How long before cnn hosts start trashing her legacy? My guess they wont wait 24 hours before the hate starts.

Rest in Heaven Queen Elizabeth. You were an amazing woman that’s leaves a legacy of love and success for women across the globe.

My condolences. May her gentle soul rest with the Lord in the bosom of Father Abraham. Amen.

ご冥福をお祈り申し上げます!

I pay my tribute and express a deep Condolence to the departed soul of Her Mejesty's Queen Elizabeth II and may the soul rest in peace.

😢😢😭😭😭MY QUEEN

RIP Queen

RIP QUEEN Elizabeth.

She was the queen of both Britain and England?

Rest in peace.

Who cares

May her soul rest in the bosom of the Lord

Americans wil be that they are but aren,nt monarquists

Around the globe? Not really.

Rest on ma

Seriously the whole world? Even the countries from which Britain stole wealths and caused deaths of millions of people? I don't think so.😒

🙏🙏🙏🙏

Really Raj? Have you been living under a rock for the last 70 years? The most amazing Queen in history, not just British History. Have a look into the things she did in the common wealth in general. It may give you an idea.

She lived a long life.

R.I.P. Beautiful Lady💙 I admire you so much.QueenElizabeth

🙏🙏🙏🙏🥹🥲😭😭😭😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

No she won’t. Irrelevant old lady.

She was born at the tail end of it, still, the essence of the paragraph is absolutely right. Too many don't understand history, or are so filled w/ bitterness & resentment, they cannot see this.

That's just wrong. Do some freaking research-the age of monarchs in Europe ended with WW1-and in Britain long before that.

So sad, She is loved and will be missed around the World. Prayers for the Family❤️❤️❤️❤️

Alright, rip Her Majesty. So now, it's your turn, Northern Ireland and Scotland.

Rip

May Queen Elizabeth II TranscendInPower
