Top 10 Things You Didn't Know About the Queen

Top 10 Things You Didn't Know About the QueenIf you are living in Britain, then leaders of your country will be called as a "Queen" and "King". They are the so called "Royal Blood" or "Dugong Bughaw" in Filipino language. A queen can maintain her position for very very long time. Before, only men are allowed to rule a country or whatever position in the society, but now women are more active when it comes to political positions. Women are also dedicated when it comes to any kinds of works, that is why they are suited to become queens, presidents, bosses, CEOs and obtain high-ranking positions when it comes to jobs. I couldn't say much about how a queen eats, drinks, sleeps and takes a bath but I am sure that she has so many bodyguards all around her. A queen can also do hard works, socialize and engage on the internet world. In 1997, the queen officially launched Buckingham Palace's first official website (royal.gov.uk). Now here are some of the things that you might didn't know about the queen.
