    As King Charles III release his royal cypher, the Coat of Arms has changed, St. Edward's Crown changed into Tudor Crown, because Tudor Crown is symbols Masculinity, and St. Edward's Crown symbols Femininity, the difference is in the arches

    • @tommydavies4365
      @tommydavies4365 Рік тому +31

      Incorrect. It is certainly commonly perceived in that way in modern times but many people do forget that the image of the Crown was only first stabdardised in 1901 after the death of Queen-Empress Victoria. Under her successor (King-Emperor Edward VII) law had estabilished for the first time how the crown was meant to be drawn and depicted. Images of the crown before 1901 are assumed to be images of Saint Edwards Crown where the arches are depressed, however that is also untrue. They are in fact depictions of the State crowns of previous monarchs. For example, the crown as shown from George 1 to at least Victoria were most likely to be depictions of the Imperial State Crown of George 1. Note that that crown is different to the present Imperial State Crown, whose design was made for Queen-Empress Victoria. Indeed, after 1877 at least, the crown had been primarily depicted with full arches instead of depressed arches. Such a design was kept after she died, was standardised and termed the 'Tudor' crown for its similarities to the physical Tudor crown created for Henry VIII. The image changed with Queen Elizabeth II due to personal preference and as such, after her death, it has been reverted back to its proper form. Another feature of the coat of arms to had been change with her accession was the depiction of The Harp in the third quartering of the shield. Traditionally it is depicted in Angelic form, however Elizabeth II had changed the design to a Celtic Harp due to personal preference. This is one detail that has not been reverted to its proper form on the coat of arms, possibly as a nod to the former Queen.

    Very informative video. A few things not mentioned.
    # God Save the King/Queen has been a national anthem in over 15 countries, which include Germany, Russia, Lichtenstein, Netherlands, and The United States of America (God save George Washington).
    # It is also a hymnal of which there are about 5 versions.
    # Was an anthem for noble German families in the 19th century. The jubilee overture by Carl Maria von Weber has the most magnificent version in it. Well worth the listen.
    # It was because of God save the Queen (HIM Queen Victoria), that the Royal Military School of music was established at Kneller hall as a centre of Military music.
    Hope that the above helps.

      GOD SAVE THE KING” I am always bewilder hearing this anthem « Grand Dieu sauve le Roi », that was compose from a poem of the la duchesse de Brinon, music composes by Lully in 1686 to celebrate the successful surgical intervention on Louis XIV’s fistula! It is believed that it was pinched by Haendel when he hears this hymn preform at Versailles!

The Americans then created Hail to the chief for the president alone. Until 1935, most people outside of America thought the national anthem was 'Stars and stripes Forever', by John Philip Sousa.

      That was in 1888 I believe, the year of Jack the Ripper and the murders that took place in London at the time. I learned this in high school and it was really good and I felt sorry for the victims at the time and no one sympathised with me. The school I was in were careless about my emotions and they now know why I bonded with these tragic events. I even have drawings of Queen Mary Ist (1516 - 1558) and Queen Elizabeth I (1533 - 1603). Me, Come and See (1985)’s Flyora and Woody.EXE are up on my wall too next to my favourite Queens; I believed Woody.EXE would have gotten on so well with Mary and so would’ve I.

    This lyrics to this song were originally written by the Italian-French composer Jean-Baptiste Lully in 1686 for King Louis XIV, as "Grand Dieu Sauve le Roi." Louis XIV is the world's longest-reigning monarch, with Elizabeth II coming in at second place. It is fitting that the most well-known monarchist song has been used for the longest-reigning king as well as the longest-reigning queen.

      @@gillesblanchard1699 Handel was in England when he wrote this song for George II, in celebration of his victory over Bonnie Prince Charlie in 1745. He may have stolen the ideas for God Save the King from Lully, but Lully's music was based on the composer John Bull, who composed the instrumental version during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. While the date of the music is unknown, it is likely that Bull wrote it in 1588, after the victory over the Spanish Armada.

    I was born in Rome, Italy, then when my paternal grandparents & paternal family went to the States, my maternal family stayed in the UK. My maternal grandfather served in WWI with H. R. H. The Duke of York (H. M. King George VI) & in WWII. He was Lt. Col. & was in the Armed Forces from 1917-1950, so my maternal family, mum, papa & I went to the UK for my schooling. After, my parents went to the States, I was alone after my grandparent's deaths. I finally went across the pond, but my heart's Loyalty lays with H. M. Queen Elizabeth II & now with H. M. Charles III!! I adored Queen Elizabeth II & a piece of my heart went with Her!! 💔 😢
