2022 comes to a close, we remember one of the most significant events in

terms of world history.

That was the death of Queen Elizabeth II,

Britain's longest serving monarch whose 70-year reign

touched all corners of the world. She was also the subject of countless global cultural events, movies, TV series, theatrical plays.
