In addition to the United Kingdom, Elizabeth II is also Queen of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Jamaica, Barbados, the Bahamas, Grenada, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Belize, Antigua and Barbuda, and Saint Kitts and Nevis, in each of which she is represented by a Governor-General

In theory her powers are vast; in practice (and in accordance with convention) she herself rarely intervenes in political matters. In the United Kingdom at least, however, she is known to take an active behind-the-scenes interest in the affairs of state, meeting regularly to establish a working relationship with her government ministers.

She never lives in any other place apart from England. So how can all these countrys still accept here?

She doesnt get involved with the countrys, So why even bother holding a title?

If i had this title i will stay in all my countries evenly. Not permently reside in the UK. You understand what im saying

  1. The Queen is head of Commonwealth which allows republics to be members. If Countries rightly or in your view wronly accept the Queen as sovereign it is up to them, no one forces it upon them.


  2. It's up to these individual countries as to who they have as Head of State, if the don't want the Queen then they can simply opt to have their own Head of State.

    However the Queen is a more popular Head of State than many political figures or despots like Mugabe.

    There is also a lot of historical and cultural links between these countries and Britain and having the Queen as Head of State reflects this.

    The Queen regularly tours these places in order to maintain close links.
