Quite the reign! Can't help but feel a bit sad really.

Indeed she reigned for about 30% of U.S. history.

(credit for observation goes to Matt Glassman)

And she was queen of Australia for over 57% of its history.

>>logicc+pA
Ahh, yes, because Australia began with the whitefella.

>>markdo+Zk1
Approximately zero of the indigenous population present prior to settlement by Europeans would have identified as being Australian, or of being born in Australia, or anything like that.

Definitively, yes, Australia "began" with European settlement of the continent.

>>denkmo+Mm1
So what? It’s just a name. Australia was still here; people were living here. Who are you to definitively declare this?

Perhaps this may seem like semantics to someone who doesn’t live here but I find this sentiment at best ignorant and at worst offensive.
