Queen Elizabeth shepherded Britain through one of the longest periods of peace, and stability in our history. I hope King Charles will continue that tradition.

I always remember this letter she wrote in a old copy of Burke's Peerage, on why she was banning the use of foreign titles.

"As chaste women ought not to cast their eyes on any other than their own husbands, so neither ought subjects to cast their eyes upon any other prince than him whom God hath set over them. I would not have my sheep branded with another man's mark; I would not have them follow the whistle of a strange shepherd." -Queen Elizabeth II 1926 - 2022

God save the Queen. And protect us all from strange shepherds.

That letter is one of the worst things I’ve ever read. She believed that God put her above other people.

Or was obligated by the position to say so.
