Queen Elizabeth of the United Kingdom and 14 other Commonwealth realms. Henry Marten, Vice-Provost of Eton College, taught Elizabeth constitutional history privately, while a succession of native-speaking governesses taught her French.
In order for her to meet other girls her own age, the 1st Buckingham Palace Company of Girl Guides was created. She became a Sea Ranger after that.
Elizabeth’s parents went on a trip to North America in 1939. Her father believed she was too young to travel with them to Australia and New Zealand in 1927, therefore Elizabeth stayed in the United Kingdom.
As her parents left, she appeared to be inconsolable. She and her parents made their first transatlantic phone contact on May 18, and they communicated frequently.
In September of that year, the United Kingdom entered World War II. Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret should be moved to Canada, said Lord Hailsham, in order to avoid the frequent Luftwaffe bombardment of London.
Prior to their move to Windsor Castle in 1940, they lived at Windsor’s Royal Lodge from February to May of that year. They performed pantomimes at Windsor to raise money for the Queen Wool Fund, which purchased yarn to be used to make military clothing.
What will Happen when the Queen Passes Away?
Prince Charles becomes the sovereign the instant the queen dies, a transformation that is formalized ceremonially and legally the next day in a quasi-mystical way.
Operation Spring Tide is the codename for Charles’s coronation.
