Not only were queens important centuries ago, but England is still a constitutional monarchy with Queen Elizabeth II as a relevant figure head in today's time.

I see it as a European New York with people all going about their lives in a quick, yet orderly fashion. Everyone seems to have an idea of where they're going and are very determined to get to it.

Even though the British are no longer constantly gaining new territory, they still have the reputation of being a powerful country.

When I travelled to England a few years ago with my family, I was amazed by the stunning jewels, crowns, and garb worn by past and present monarchy at the Tower of London. The crown jewels are symbols of wealth, success, and political power in England.
