    We all know that one day the Queen in her old age will eventually pass. But she had become a constant for the people of the UK for 70 years and losing her would really be a shock. It's like having known your grandmother all your life and she had always been there until she died and the world suddenly spun off its axis. Things will never be the same, and all we could do is embrace the change. My sincerest condolences to the Royal Family and to the people of the UK.

      Queen Victoria was of the house of Hannover but she married Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg und Gotha and thus changed the dynasty to his. His dynasty continue through the paternal side all the way to King Charles. They arbitrarily changed their name to the House of Windsor after King George V’s favorite castle during WWI to not sound so German….but they were almost completely German all the way to Elizabeth herself. King George VI could not have looked more German if he tried….even his mother Queen Mary (Mary of Teck) was of a great German house. But, Elizabeth got an injection of English and Scottish through her mother. But then, Elizabeth herself ALSO married a great German noble house when she married Phillip of the House of Battenberg (Anglicized to Mountbatten due to the whole world war thing, but Phillip himself couldn’t get more German…this makes King Charles 75% German and 25% Scot/English)

"When her father died in February 1952, Elizabeth-then 25 years old-became queen" my dad's dad died in 1949, so no - his mum, 1963 so no. so 3/4 of my grandparents saw the change from King to Queen. and hun, "future kin" - the ones who haven't been born yet??

    The Queen had become a mythical figure to all of us. We felt that she would go on forever. The speed of her death coming just several hours after the first reports of her declining health and concern by her doctors took everyone by surprise. I certainly expected there to be at least a couple of days as her health deteriorated. Having seen that final set of photos where just two days prior the Queen had met with Liz Truss made the news even harder to digest- although she looked frail she did appear to be vibrant and in good spirits. Whatever condition she was suffering from was obviously much worse than what was being reported by the media- we weren't really prepared for what happened. I still cannot believe she's gone. The Queen has been the one constant in the world throughout my life- a succession of Presidents, Prime Ministers and Popes have come and gone over the past 70 years but the Queen has remained, steadfast and regal. The Queen is dead, God save the King.

    You don't have to be a monarchist to appreciate what an extraordinary figure she was. The last few weeks have shown that a lot of people are sorely lacking when it comes to knowledge of history. The fact that the British empire came to an end during her reign and didn't take tens of millions of lives along with it as most every empire in history has done when it fell is absolutely incredible. I'm not saying it was perfect or bloodless but when you look at the circumstances of the fall of other empires throughout history it's hard to imagine a more peaceful end to what was the most vast empire in human history at its peak 100 years ago.

    My family have never been huge royalists but it's surprising how deeply sad the Queen's passing has been because she meant many different things to people all over the world. I'm in my 30's and so she's always been part of British life for me and it seems odd without her now. All the cultural references she's been a part of..My Mum lost her mother when she was young so never got to see her grow old. The Queen was one month older than her mother so she always felt like she was watching the Queen's progression and wondering if her Mum would look the same etc. Now she feels like even that link to her parent's generation is gone.

    As an American, when I heard Her Majesty had passed, I was shocked. I had always thought, quite stupidly if I'm honest but still, that the Queen might live forever. She had been Queen my entire life. My heart aches for the people of the UK and the British Commonwealth. What people fail to realize is that Queen Elizabeth II cannot be held responsible for the actions of her predecessors. That would be the same as a modern day German, Italian, or Japanese person being held accountable for the actions of their parents or grandparents in WWII. Or the modern day French being held accountable for the Norman Conquest. It's simply idiotic. The Queen never did anything against her own people (or any other people that didn't attack first). And if you want to claim that she profited off the actions of her predecessors, so did every single leader ever elected. In any country. That's how succession works. Not to mention the companies is the capitalist societies around the world. War is big business for them. But you don't see us calling for their shutdown, do you?

    Whatever your opinion is of the Queen, as i have read a lot of quite moronic and insensitive comments over the last week calling her a racist; coloniser, thief and a symbol of oppression of all things, remember that she was a instrumental figure of this nation and was greatly beloved by the people here and so at the very least pay us the respect of grieving our great loss without having to deal with your soap box propaganda.

I learned that both women cared deeply about people, but had different talents. QEII was steady and reliable and consistent and could inspire greatly with a few words. She clearly had a great sense of fun - jumping out of a helicopter for the olympics (well, going along with all of that) - we didn't get to see that until later. My friend went out her way to make sure she was the one to tell me QEII passed, I knew it was imminent, but still to hear those words....and I'm an American.

    Liz Truss met Queenie on Tuesday. Queenie died Thursday. Does this mean Liz Truss has been exposed as the Angel Of Death?

      It was just all too much, first being lied to by a clown who then proceeded to destroy the country that she had ruled over, then having to shake the hand of the imbecile that is the new Pime Minister...

    she was so sweet and good. World lost a good soul, but honestly I don't know why some people are in such a shock. It is just the way how unfortunately life goes.
    RIP Queen and God Save the King

    Greetings from Canada and I can't speak on behalf of all Canadians but I was aware of queen elizabeth health had been declining more so after her husband passing they marriage was special for 70 years and if1 spouse passes eventually the other 1 will go but I can't say no more other than thanking her children for having a special mom and queen to represent Canada
