Queen Elizabeth II of England died, and Charles 2 inherited the throne in the throne and became the new king of England. So what is the relationship between , Elizabeth I, and , in the British royal family?
Elizabeth I and Elizabeth II are both very well-known, but many people have only a little understanding of the British royal family, and they have even more questions about Elizabeth I and II: What is the relationship between them?
In fact, there is no relationship between the two! Elizabeth I and II are queens of different eras, but they are both queens with orthodox descent of the British royal family.
Elizabeth I was the Queen of Tudor dynasty in the United Kingdom (1558-1603), the only daughter of Henry VIII . She was born on September 7, 1533 in GMT. She is well-educated, well-versed in , Latin , French, Italian and other languages, and believes in Protestantism. He was involved in complex palace struggles in his early years. Queen Mary died on November 17, 1558, and Elizabeth I ascended the throne.
Elizabeth II was born in London on April 21, 1926. His original name was Elizabeth Alexandra Mary. He was the eldest daughter of the fourth monarch of the Windsor Dynasty in the UK and King George VI of King George VI. She received education in the palace since she was a child, majoring in constitutional history and law, has accomplished in history, language and music, and can speak French, Spanish and German fluently. World War II later participated in the British local auxiliary forces and received training in driving and repairing motorcycles. On July 9, 1947, Elizabeth II was engaged to his distant cousin, Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten (now Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Philip ), and got married on November 20 of the same year. The king passed away on February 6, 1952, and Elizabeth II inherited the throne. Crown on June 2, 1953.
Since childhood, many European kings we know from history classes are often called XX generations, such as the King of England who was sent to the guillotine Charles I , the Bourbon dynasty of France 1 Louis XIV , the Tsarist Russian The last emperor Nicholas II , etc. In fact, since foreigners' names are composed of first and last names, and the rulers of the same family ruled a place generally have the same surname (of course, Elizabeth I and Elizabeth II have no blood relationship at all, so they are not the same surname), so for the sake of simplicity, the names of rulers are all named without the surname.
Elizabeth is their first and not their last name. Perhaps we Chinese are easily affected, such as Qin Shihuang , Qin II , so we take it for granted that Elizabeth II is the successor. Those rulers like to give their descendants the same name as their descendants, or the king or queen before, which led to too many rulers with the same name in history, and they had to become XX first, XX second,... in order of order. The real meaning of this term is that XX is the first ruler in the history of the country or region to call this name. The previous ruler named this name may be his ex (i.e., father), or it may be a long time ago (maybe just the same name, but it cannot be beaten by eight poles in blood). But somehow, when we Chinese translate, we use our habits to call them XX I, XX II,..., which has caused many people to misunderstand. However, it is said that the translations in Hong Kong are XX first, XX second,..., so I understand a lot.
