And from a few events in history, from several aspects, show her majesty's arduous journey, try to understand her inner sorrow and joy.
First, at the last moment of his life, he was still receiving Her Majesty the Queen, an unreliable prime minister
At the last moment of her life, Her Majesty the Queen was still adhering to the duties of the royal family and met with the new Prime Minister, the unreliable Terrasse. It is estimated that when the queen received her, her heart must have been desperate. I have no one in Britain, and I have elected such a commodity to be the prime minister.
Tras is known for being geographically illiterate in British politician circles, and when she was foreign secretary, Tras made a series of big international jokes. In January 2022, Terrass claimed to supply weapons to three small countries, including Lithuania on the Black Sea, against Russia. She was ridiculed by the media and couldn't tell the difference between the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea.
Later, on the eve of the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Tras met with Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov, and without saying a word, she asked the Russian army to withdraw from the Rostov and Voronezh oblasts to Russia. Lavrov could not help but ask Tras: Do you think that these two oblasts do not belong to Russian territory? Then look at her like a fool.
Without waiting for anyone else to speak, Tras replied emphatically: Britain will never recognize the sovereignty of these two lands to Russia! This statement was in an uproar. Subsequently, the British ambassador to Russia quickly whispered to Terrass on the side that the two oblasts were originally Russian territory. It is estimated that at that time, the heart of the British ambassador to Russia must have been sauce aunt.
As Britain's foreign secretary, Tras repeatedly demonstrated the extent of her ignorance of diplomatic work, not even the geographical location of other countries, and what work to talk about? When such a person becomes prime minister, it is conceivable how far he can take the country.
Second, churchill, the famous prime minister of the British Empire, was dismembered
In 1952, Queen Elizabeth ascended the throne, and the prime minister at the time was the famous Churchill. Although Churchill was famous as one of the Big Three of World War II and a Nobel Laureate in Literature, in a sense, he was the one who dismembered the British Empire with his own hands.
Churchill's early fame was in some ways associated with Mustafa Kemal, a strongman in the Muslim world.
During World War I, Churchill served as British Admiralty, and the battlefield situation in Europe at that time was that of Germany, Austria-Hungary against Britain, France and Russia, plus a later anti-water Italy, four to two, the Entente had a great advantage.
At first, the Ottoman Turks did not intend to enter the war, but were on the sidelines. It was not bad for Turkey to remain neutral, but Churchill did not know which tendon was wrong, gave full play to the spirit of the British contract, and directly withheld the two warships ordered by the Turks from Britain, on the grounds that they were requisitioned free of charge in wartime and did not give any compensation.
This move directly annoyed Turkey, who at that time regarded these two warships as a symbol of national rejuvenation, and in order to buy warships, the Turks donated money, even schoolchildren and beggars. The Ottoman Turks, enraged and co-opted by Germany at the time, sided with the Allies in the war against the Allies.
Turkey immediately blocked the Dardanelles After entering the war, Britain and France could not deliver weapons to Russia through the Black Sea, because Russia's domestic industry was relatively backward, there was no Blood Transfusion between Britain and France, and the Russian army was defeated by the German army on the front line.
Soon, Britain and France recognized the seriousness of the problem, and Churchill decided to concentrate on opening the Dardanelles and occupying Constantinople. So Britain and France concentrated 500,000 troops and prepared to land on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey, only to be stubbornly resisted by the Turkish army commanded by German military adviser Sanders, and the Anglo-French coalition army fought for several months without success, and finally ended in the defeat of 200,000 casualties.
This battle led to the later father of Turkey, Mustafa Kemal, who was still a colonel commander, because of his excellent performance in the battle, he accumulated great prestige, and laid the foundation for the formation of a new Turkish army and the establishment of a republic.
Incidentally, without the assistance of Britain and France, Tsarist Russia eventually collapsed as a result of the uprising, and the Soviet Union was successfully established from the ruins of Tsarist Russia.
Churchill remained discouraged in politics until World War II, when he succeeded in replacing former Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, who had stepped down because of the bankruptcy of his appeasement policies, because of his tough attitude toward Germany.
Although Churchill, as one of the big three, made a great contribution to the defeat of the Axis powers, in the eyes of the British, Churchill's policies were very damaging to Britain's core interests. Britain was inferior to Germany at the time, and adopting a neutral attitude was in Britain's favor, because Germany did not have a strong navy and did not pose much of a threat to Britain's practical interests, that is, the vast overseas colonies. Britain really cannot afford to fight Germany to the end at this time, and Churchill's behavior at this time is very doubtful. His choice to fight nazi Germany was not in fact in the interests of the British, but in the interests of the Americans. It is precisely because of this that Britain gave too many interests to the United States, and at the same time lost a huge amount of strength in the confrontation with Germany, the mainland almost became a ruin, and the colonies became independent after the war, which eventually led to the decline of the British Empire after World War II, but the United States relied on the war to make a windfall and sit on the position of world hegemony, and Britain could only be reduced to a follower.
Looking back at what Churchill did during World War II, everything he did seemed to be what the Americans wanted to do, purely for the sake of the Interests of the United States, and did not pay much attention to the interests of the United Kingdom. It is conceivable that Churchill's mother is the daughter of a rich Man in the United States, and although Churchill is also a descendant of a famous British man, he also has half of the Blood of Americans in his body. It is precisely because of Churchill's special status that he can be recognized by americans, recognized by financial capital, and eventually become prime minister. What he did, although it was in the name of the interests of the British, was greatly damaged by the interests of the British. By the end of World War II, the British finally came back and understood that there was something catty in it, so they ousted him from power in that election.
So Churchill could only say indignantly in his own writings that abandoning his great men was the mark of a strong nation.
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, on the other hand, watched as the British Empire established by his ancestors gradually retreated to the British Isles in the midst of historical changes.
Today, we can only relive the majesty of the British Empire from the old photos of King George's parade.
3. Inattentive members of the royal family
If it weren't for Elizabeth's uncle Edward VIII, who didn't love the beauties, the queen might not have become queen. It was because Edward VIII abdicated because he fell in love with a married woman that the throne fell to Queen Elizabeth's father, King George VI.
And this inattentive royal bloodline seems to be repeating itself in her children and grandchildren. Despite her lifelong efforts to maintain the image of the royal family, her sons and grandsons constantly challenged the dignity of the royal family. First there is the unblessed love between Crown Prince Charles and Camilla, and then there is the tragic ending of Princess Diana, and even her grandson Harry, who has always been favored, is seduced by an American woman and abandons all her royal obligations.
Although as a kind old lady, Her Majesty the Queen can tolerate the nonsense of her children and grandchildren. This can be seen in her eventual acceptance of Camilla. As a symbol of the British royal family, she could not allow her children and grandchildren to tarnish the glory of the royal family. So she had to choose between affection and responsibility.
Throughout the Queen's life, she has exhausted her efforts to maintain the dignity of the British royal family. However, on the occasion of her death. I can't help but think of Franz Joseph I, who is also a symbol of an empire and has also been in charge of an empire for decades. Less than two years after his death, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, for which he had devoted his life, fell. Presumably, at that time, he watched the decline of his country on the battlefield of World War I, and the feeling of despair would probably arise spontaneously.
And I wonder what Her Majesty the Queen will think of the country she has guarded all her life on the occasion of her death? I think it may also be a kind of despair.
