I have studied the monarchy from William I the Norman to Elizabeth II from the House of Windsor. I have no problem with this form of government it has lasted quite a long time. It looks as though Elizabeth is setting in motion the necessary things to turn over the running of the Empire within a year or so to William. Elizabeth II has served the Empire with grace, charm, class, and political savvy.

Why would she do that ? I thought she was looking forward to surpassing Victoria’s 63+ year reign, which occurs in 2015.

From the wiki:
Prince Andrew married Sarah Ferguson at Westminster Abbey on 23 July 1986, the same day the Queen created him Duke of York, Earl of Inverness, and Baron Killyleagh
On his wedding day, the Queen conferred on Prince Edward the titles of Earl of Wessex and Viscount Severn.
