For the record, I would like to state that I am not completely ignorant; however, I just read a Wiki article about Queen Elizabeth II (commonly known as Queen of England)… it turns out she is also, separately but at the same time:
Queen of Canada
Queen of New Zealand
Queen of Australia
Queen of Belize
Queen of Jamaica
…and queen of a dozen other island nations! :eek:
I will now proceed to spend the rest of the day muttering to myself, “holy shit…”
Yup, ever since the Statute of Westminster in the 1930s, the monarch has been the monarch of each of the Commonwealth Realms separately. We’re all independent countries, the only commonality being the same person as head of state.
One thing she’s not, though, is Queen of England. There hasn’t been a Queen of England since 1707, when the crowns of England and Scotland (which had been separate crowns, though worn by the same person since James VI of Scotland became James I of England in 1603) were fused into a common Kingdom of Great Britain.
In the Commonwealth Realms besides the UK, the Queen is represented by a Governor General, who fulfils all the functions of the Queen in that country. (The Commonwealth Realms are the countries of which Elizabeth is Queen. Not all the countries in the Commonwealth are Commonwealth Realms, though – many are republics, such as India or Nigeria. However, Elizabeth is ceremonially Head of the Commonwealth.)
Well, think of all the lands that Queen Victoria was monarch over! That’s when the British Empire was world-wide…
That one little island sure did have a stone set of huevos, once upon a time!
I can’t believe this comes as a surprise to you. Did you really think she was just Queen of England?
Did you know she lays 2000 eggs every day, has 10 times the lifespan of her workers, and can command bees?

Now that’s too funny!
Did you know that she’s actually a reptile?

And here I thought this was a thread about Elton John.
I have to admit I am surprised to learn she is not the Queen of England?
Seriously?
I mean, I thought that was a given.
Wow, I guess I need to take Royalty 101 to get up to speed.
She is the queen of England, but that’s not one of her titles. England is not a sovereign entity, it is part of the United Kingdom. That’s what she’s queen of.
Right. Calling her the Queen of England is kind of like calling Elliot Spitzer the Governor of Westchester County.
Well all know that’s Jeanine Pirro’s job.
She’s not Queen of Outer Space. That was Laurie Mitchell/Yilana, and later Zsa Zsa
But…but…she can still flip out and kill people, right?
Ooo…SNAP.
"Who would win in a combat between a Tyrannosaurus rex and Queen Elizabeth II?
"a) The Tyrannosaurus rex
"b) Queen Elizabeth II
“c) It would depend on how much prey the Queen was digesting when she initiated the attack”
Well that’ll teach me to read the Dope while on a conference call*. I practically gave myself a hernia trying not to laugh out loud. 
Does Lyndon LaRouche still maintain that she’s queen of the drug trade, too?
