She was the first female king of Denmark in 500 years and the fifth monarch of the Glücksburg dynasty.
Her name was Margaret.
In 1940, Queen Ingrid of Denmark gave birth to her eldest daughter, Margaret, but Margaret was not eligible to inherit the throne because Denmark was a typical dynasty of male and female transmission.
So Queen Ingrid gritted her teeth again and gave birth to two children in just 3 years.
As a result, the two children are also daughters, creating a miracle of one room and three daughters in Denmark.
In the end, in order to continue the royal bloodline, the Danish king had to decide to let women inherit the throne, so he specially amended the succession constitution to stipulate that women can also become heirs to the throne.
Margaret, the eldest daughter of the king, was entrusted with the task of becoming a rare crown prince in Denmark.
It should be noted that the royal family did not make this change to mean that they would never prefer sons to daughters, because when Margaret became queen, the constitution was changed back to allow only men to inherit.
At that time, the king did not trust his daughter Margaret, and specially named her "Margaret II", in order to make her emulate the sage "Queen Margaret I" and make a remarkable contribution.
Margaret I was the first queen 500 years ago, and her story is legendary.
She was married to Norway as queen in her early years, and then her father died, and her young son was forced to become king of Denmark.
She had to go back to rule for her son, and as a result, her ability to govern the country was stimulated, and she ruled the three countries of Northern Europe, Denmark, Norway and Sweden, becoming the most revered queen of the Danes.
Of course, Margaret II, as a junior, did not disgrace her predecessors, and she was evaluated by the media as the smartest monarch in Europe in recent years.
Margaret grew up different from other girls, proficient in painting, embroidery, archaeology, smoking, drinking, and perming.
Some professors have criticized her for causing a bad national atmosphere by smoking, and the media has asked her about smoking many times.
Instead, she said loudly, "I have no problem." After saying that, he skillfully lit a cigarette in front of the reporter.
At that time, people thought that the queen was just young and vigorous, and when she had experience, she would shrink a lot.
But I didn't expect her to be more eclectic when she got older.
Also watching the ball on the pitch, the Queen of England is gloomy and does not smile.
Margaret was like an avid fan, cheering for the team despite the image.
However, many people are also attracted to Margaret's pro-people image, believing that she has no shelf at all.

While the Danish Prime Minister indiscriminately insulted China, the Queen of Denmark was as pro-China as ever.
Since she was a child, she has been interested in China's cultural history, ancient architecture and excavated cultural relics.
The Great Wall, the Forbidden Palace, the Dunhuang murals of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Xu Beihong, and Qi Baishi's famous paintings all have a fatal attraction to her.
Once, when she accidentally put on traditional Chinese clothing, she also specially asked the painter to paint her own costume image.
In 2014, Queen Margaret broke the "one country only visits once" rule and came to China again after 35 years.
She was surprised to say that when she first came to Shanghai, Pudong was still a farmland, but now it has become a big city full of buildings.
She also claims that Denmark is a small country compared to China, and she was shocked when she first saw China's bustling crowds.
At that time, Denmark had always maintained a good relationship with us because of Queen Margaret.
Her husband, Prince Henrik, is a Chinese pedant, visits China every few years, and is particularly fond of Chinese food.
Her daughter-in-law, Wen Yali, was the first Chinese to marry into the European royal family, grew up in Hong Kong, and was loved by many local people when she arrived in Denmark.
However, the Danish Queen has limited power, and the power of the country is in the hands of politicians such as the prime minister, so many decisions made by the Danish high-level cannot represent her own opinions.
Moreover, the queen is old, she usually only does some archaeology, painting interest, and occasionally goes to the nearby commissary to buy vegetables and breakfast.
Among many European royal families, the danish queen's salary belongs to the middle and lower reaches. She has $2.8 million a year and eighteen tons of bluefish.
But if you remove the daily expenses of some palaces, these salaries are simply not enough to see.
Therefore, her behavior usually seems to be very diligent and frugal, and she has to worry about buying vegetables with vendors.
People can also often see an old lady near the Danish palace who is one meter and eight meters tall, sometimes standing on the street smoking cigarettes and sometimes bargaining with merchants, except for being taller, her image is no different from that of ordinary old women.

The Queen of Denmark married one of the most capable husbands in the world.
In 2017, the 83-year-old Prince Henrik of Denmark suddenly announced that he refused to be buried with the queen after his death, preferring to sprinkle all his ashes into the sea.
As soon as this statement came out, it immediately caused a sensation, because Henrik had already made trouble several times because of his status as a "son-in-law".
Henrik was French, his father was a French earl, and had a large amount of assets in Vietnam.
Henrik also spent 5 years in Vietnam to keep his assets.
At that time, he was both a son of the nobility and a rich second generation, and was pursued by countless famous women.
But at the age of 33, he met Margaret, the Crown Prince of Denmark, who was 6 years younger than himself, and his fate changed dramatically.
Henrik fell in love with Margaret at first sight and decided to become an enviable couple with her.
At that time, he also knew that if he wanted to become a royal aunt, he would have to give up all his previous identities and be raised in the palace like a mascot.
But he did not flinch in the slightest, and eventually succeeded in marrying Margaret.
At first, people always regarded Henrik and Margaret as a model of husband and wife, believing that their love was as beautiful as a fairy tale.
But after some time, Henrik was dissatisfied.
Because according to the royal rules, he not only had to report to his wife when he traveled, but even needed to get her permission to buy a pack of cigarettes.
And he didn't have any real power, so he could only attend events after his wife.
Once margaret was ill and could not receive guests, Henrik immediately proposed to replace the queen to go out to receive, but this proposal was rejected by Margaret herself.
Henrik finally couldn't stand it, and he ran back to France in a huff, vowing never to go to Denmark again.
Although he later returned with the persuasion of Margaret and her sons, his rebellious character also exploded.
He deliberately demanded higher salaries, increased powers, and even blatantly had private meetings with other women, all in retaliation for Margaret's discipline of him.
Until the age of 83, Henrik still argued with Margaret, and even asked not to be buried with the queen after death, just to get rid of the status of "royal son-in-law".
Originally, Henrik thought that he would be able to beat Margaret fiercely, but he did not expect that Margaret would still maintain a peaceful state of mind and forgive her husband for all her nonsense.
In 2018, the well-spoken Henrik died peacefully in a Danish castle, and Margaret personally designed a funeral for him.
On that day, the funeral site was full of flowers and was very spectacular.
Queen Margaret did not fall into grief like the others, but barely held up a smile.
