The Website for People Who Love Britain - Anglophiles
The Queen has accomplished much in her life and has served her people well. We were astounded by the sheer numbers backing up her reign – here is just a sampling: 102 State banquets, 404,500 Medals Awarded, Patron of 600 Charities – I could go on.
So, we thought it would be fun to have an infographic commissioned of the Queen’s Reign based on the numbers.
Check it out below – if you think it’s cool – feel free to share it using the embed code at the bottom.
About JonathanJonathan is a consummate Anglophile with an obsession for Britain that borders on psychosis. He keeps Anglotopia running in his spare time, always dreaming of his next trip to England, wishing he lived there - specifically Dorset - and is always trying to figure out a way to move to England. It will happen one day. Keep up with him on Twitter here.
