Elizabeth, who died on Thursday, was the most popular member of the royal family, according to opinion polls. Her successor Charles is not almost like lovable like his mother. His eldest son William is already seen as an A heir to the throne From Charles himself.

Charles has been king since his mother’s death. He will be officially crowned on Saturday. Charles would not consider the role of the “mediating pope” for himself. It is known that he intends to take over the royal family to shrink, where fewer family members are assigned official duties. Charles would surely have a hard time dealing with his mother’s inheritance.

With her reign of seventy years, Elizabeth was one of the longest service Heads of state in the world ever. As a result, it has grown into a symbol of peace and stability. According to British political scientist Peter Harris, many Britons literally cannot imagine a world without it To provide. This is a very big shadow that Charles should try to get out of.

When Elizabeth was crowned in 1953, it already led to the necessary discussion as to whether this rite is still modern. Now that Elizabeth is dead and her lesser-known son has taken over the flaming golden scepter, this discussion will flare up again. And maybe brighter than ever.

According to experts, Charles will not be able to press the mold of the king that his mother has formed for seventy years. He is known for speaking out about issues he finds important, such as the climate. This could lead to unrest in the country, something Elizabeth always tried to avoid at all costs.

According to historian Alistair Bellani of Rutgers University, during Elizabeth’s reign there was already “growing resentment“Between the Commonwealth of Nations with the British Queen as Head of State”. How many of those nations would seize this moment to break with the British crown, and now personal sympathy and admiration for Elizabeth no longer play a role? “

Barbados has proven that independence is possible last year. The Caribbean island bid farewell to Elizabeth as head of state at the end of November after exactly 55 years. As a representative of the British royal family, Charles was present at the ceremony on the island. Since then, Barbados has become a republic, and its president is the head of state.

It has at least six Caribbean islands shown To follow the example of Barbados. On the other hand, you see New Zealand without reason For liberation from the English crown.

It is not necessary for member states to leave the Commonwealth in order to have their own head of state. As a former British colony, India has been a member state since 1947, but the Indian president has officially been the head of state since 1950. Other countries will at least now consider such a partition.
