The British Royal Family is the one of the oldest family in the world. And the family has a lot of famous Kings and Queens, such as Queen Elizabeth I, Queen Elizabeth II, King Charles I, and King Edward VIII and so on. These outstanding Kings and Queens hand abundant legends and interesting history stories to posterity.
Nowadays in Britain, The Queen has two important roles: Head of States, and “Head of the Nation”, the Queen’s role is less formal. However, no less important for the social and cultural functions it fulfils. Furthermore, members of the Royal Family also support the Queen in her public duties especially when she cannot be present the in person, as well as carry out significant work of the public and charitable service.
In the same time, the Royal Family also plays an important role in supporting and encouraging the public and charity sectors. Equally important, the Royal Family also plays an important role in recognising and supporting the work of the Armed Services. For example, members of the Royal Family carry out regular visits to Afghanistan, formerly, in Iraq. Finally, the Royal Family as a whole plays a role in strengthening national unity. According to the data from Royal official website, there are almost 2000 official engagements are carried out by the Royal Family throughout the UK and worldwide.
The legendary life of Queen Elizabeth inspires interest to find out more for me. The respected Queen is going to carry out her 100th birthdays and 60th wedding anniversaries at Buckingham Palace. The Sovereign has sent congratulatory message to people celebrating their birthdays and anniversaries since 1917.
So whether we can receive a congratulatory message from the Queen?
