Queen Elizabeth II has been the Head of State in the UK since 1952, making her the world’s oldest reigning monarch and a national institution across the country.
Throughout her reign she has had a high profile throughout much of the world, but there are also plenty of things you probably don’t know about the Queen.
She is also the monarch of several other countries including Canada, Australia and New Zealand, as well as the Head of the Commonwealth and the Supreme Governor of the Church of England.
Did you know that she is the only person in the UK who is allowed to drive a car without a license? Or that, as well as breeding her famous corgis, she has also introduced a new breed of dog known as a ‘dorgi’?
