In 1977, the Queen's Silver Jubilee was celebrated in the United Kingdom and throughout the Commonwealth. Accompanied by the Duke of Edinburgh, the Queen traveled some 56,000 miles to share the anniversary with her people. 2002 marked the 50th anniversary of The Queen's Accession to the Throne. Only five other British monarchs had previously achieved this milestone: Henry III, Edward III, James I, George III and Queen Victoria.
This is a quote from Queen Elizabeth the second herself
“We lost the American colonies because we lacked the
statesmanship to know the right time and the manner
of yielding what is impossible to keep.” -Elizabeth II
