Queen Elizabeth II was the longest-serving monarch of Great Britain. She has been served by 15 prime ministers, and during her reign, there have been 14 US presidents. Elizabeth remains queen of 15 realms including the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Jamaica, Antigua and Barbuda, the Bahamas, Belize, Grenada, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, St Kitts and Nevis, St Lucia, St Vincent and the Grenadines, and Tuvalu. Many countries including India and Pakistan got independence from the British empire during her rule.
