Queen Elizabeth was suffering from health issues since October last year, which had left her unable to walk or stand.

Keeping up with centuries of traditions and protocols, Charles – the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth – succeeded as the King of Great Britain immediately after the Queen’s demise.

Elizabeth was born in 1926, eight years after the end of the first World War.
