Just a song at twilight...

Here is what the British Empire looked like at its greatest extent (Click on the map for a closer view).

It has changed, of course. It is much smaller now.

But let this serve as a tribute from one in the former colonies to the woman who has been at its helm for the past sixty years:

“Love’s Old Sweet Song” (3:05)

If Queen Elizabeth II lives as long as her mother did, she could still be on the throne fifteen years from now.
