I think it was Charles the 2nd who turned the power over to parliament, a few centuries ago. These days, our Queen and many kings before her, have served their country, not ruled it. Queen Elizabeth has served her country for 70 years, she is the longest reigning monarch ever and much loved. As for Henry X111, he was a vicious murderer, and followed a line of them. I would not have liked to have lived in those days. You have a very interesting family Beth, I hope you continue to write about your ancestors. Well done. Warm hugs, Sandra xx

Thank you for reviewing this. I know Queen Elizabeth is deeply loved and has been a excellent monarch. I'm not sure if all Britain feel the same about Charles. I'm glad the government isn't in the hands of just one. Last night I watched a movie about Queen Victoria. See was portrayed as a decent queen but nevertheless powerful.
