Queen Elizabeth II, the longest-reigning British monarch whose rule spanned seven decades, died on Thursday at the age of 96, Buckingham Palace has announced.

Elizabeth ascended to the throne in 1952, on the death of her father, King George VI. She oversaw the last throes of the British empire, weathered global upheaval and domestic scandal, and dramatically modernized the monarchy.
She died at Balmoral Castle in Scotland after doctors said they had become concerned about her health on Thursday.
Elizabeth ruled over the United Kingdom and 14 other Commonwealth realms, and became one of the most recognizable women ever to have lived. Her son, Charles, immediately became King upon her death.
 
Her sense of duty and loyalty never left her throughout the years a wonderful monarch and remarkable woman . An example of how we should lead out lives . A new chapter for the monarchy and the constitution . I'm here in Scotland , she died in the most wonderful place which held su h happy memories for her . She's now reunited with her love .
Rest in peace .
