The United Kingdom, the Commonwealth, and the rest of the world have said their final farewells to Queen Elizabeth II, a woman who dominated the global sphere of royalty and politics.There is no doubt that the late monarch commanded the respect of leaders from around the world and her subjects in the UK and the realms.It can be argued that her high favourability ratings had less to do with the station she held and more to do with how she performed her role. The Queen was consistent in her approach to thorny political and social issues and was even credited with influencing political leaders into adjusting their position on matters following private meetings with Her Majesty.
