Why Is There Still a Crown in England?

Although we know him from the United Kingdom, World War II. Elizabeth was queen of a total of 16 countries. II, which reigned for more than 70 years. Elizabeth became the longest-serving head of state. Although She died at the age of 96, his death was talked about as much as he did when he was alive. Of course, he had both likes and dislikes. So that; while some people mourn, others tragically died in 1996. Princess Diana’s blamed Elizabeth for her death and “We have no other queen but Diana” said.

Some of us started to look at the event from a different dimension and stopped and stopped. “Why is there still a kingdom system in the UK?” we questioned. A controversial life and reign Although Queen II. Elizabeth succeeded in bringing these questions back to mind with her death. Today, we will look for answers to some of the questions we have in mind with you.

Let’s first see if the royal family has any influence on the government.

The United Kingdom was ruled by the monarchy system for centuries. Therefore, the people have always had great respect for their king and queen. However, the UK is currently ‘constitutional monarchy’ managed by the system. In other words, when making a decision about the state, all power is in the parliament and the royal family is only symbolic.

The reason why the king or queen is referred to as the ‘symbolic’ head of state; They only appear at ceremonies, other than to give approval to the party leader who wins the election to form a government and to enact laws. All laws have been passed since 1708, although the crown has the final say in ratifying new laws. This is the king and queen you don’t have much authority another proof.

So why is there still a royal system?

The essence of the matter is actually based on a few very simple reasons. Firstly; king and queen, all over the UK (or even the world) He is loved too much. So that; Although she was the target of criticism for her actions while she was alive, Elizabeth’s death mourned hundreds of thousands of people. The UK, contrary to popular belief, does not only cover the UK. Along with England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland It consists of 4 founding countries and 16 regions. Royal system since the 1600s a force that connects countries and regions seen as.

However, another reason is that the rulers from the royal family give confidence to the people. Because people who become kings or queens are in the royal life throughout their lives. Of course, there is also the traditional part of the business. Medal and presentation ceremonies, royal weddings and, of course, coronations have become traditions that lock up the world, not just the UK. Today, the people of the UK are very attached to these traditions. Anyone else think differently?

Of course, there are those who think differently.

The expenses of all participants in royal ceremonies are covered by the state treasury. As everyone knows, events and ceremonies are not ‘plainly’ and astonishing expenses is being done. These costs also draw public criticism from time to time. We even witness protests taking place.

As a matter of fact, although the vast majority are content with the ceremonies and presence of the royal family, close to 18% of the population The state wants to change the administrative system. Although the ongoing polls since 1969 show that a minority of people want to be governed by a republic, the vast majority have adopted the constitutional monarchy system.

It came like this, it looks like it will go like this.

So as a result; The majority of UK people are content. A minority around the world enjoy grand and resplendent coronations. it’s a big waste and now he thinks there should be a ‘republican’ system in the UK. Of course, these voices sound quieter than others because there is a great loyalty to the royal family. I mean, it came like this, it looks like it will go like this…
