Queen Elizabeth II: how her reign began #shorts

Guardian News published this video item, entitled “Queen Elizabeth II: how her reign began #shorts” – below is their description.

Queen Elizabeth II, the longest-reigning monarch in British history, has died at the age of 96.

Prince Charles, 73, heir to the throne since the age of three, is now king, and the Duchess of Cornwall is now Queen Consort.

As Queen of the UK and 14 other realms, and head of the 54-nation Commonwealth, Elizabeth II was easily the world’s most recognisable head of state during an extraordinarily long reign.

This is her life, in her own words.
