WHY IS THE QUEEN SO IMPORTANT?
• In a monarchy, a king or queen is Head of State and it includes the
unity and traditions of Britain. The queen was also known for taking a
serious interest in government and political affairs and was credited
with modernizing many aspects of the monarchy.
• The British Monarchy is known as a constitutional monarchy. This
means that, while The Sovereign is Head of State, the ability to make
and pass legislation resides with an elected Parliament.
