Am 3. Februar 1954 trat die frisch gekrönte Königin Elizabeth II. In Sydney an Land und wurde die erste regierende Monarchin, die Australien besuchte. Die Australier entpuppten sich in ihren Millionen, um einen Blick auf die junge Königin zu erhaschen. Sie besuchte Australien zwei Monate lang und hielt sich dabei an einen strapaziösen Zeitplan, und es wird geschätzt, dass fast drei Viertel der australischen Bevölkerung die Königin mindestens einmal während des Besuchs gesehen haben. Vom 9. Bis 18. März besuchte sie Queensland und reiste nach Brisbane, Bundaberg, Toowoomba, Cairns, Townsville, Mackay und Rockhampton.

Elizabeth II (Elizabeth Alexandra Mary; born 21 April 1926)is Queen of the United Kingdom and 15 other Commonwealth realms. Elizabeth was born in Mayfair, London, as the first child of the Duke and Duchess of York (later King George VI and Queen Elizabeth). Her father ascended the throne on the abdication of his brother King Edward VIII in 1936, from which time she was the heir presumptive. She was educated privately at home and began to undertake public duties during the Second World War, serving in the Auxiliary Territorial Service. In 1947, she married Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, a former prince of Greece and Denmark, with whom she had four children: Charles, Prince of Wales; Anne, Princess Royal; Prince Andrew, Duke of York; and Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex. When her father died in February 1952, Elizabeth – then 25 years old – became head of the Commonwealth and queen regnant of seven independent Commonwealth countries: the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan, and Ceylon. She has reigned as a constitutional monarch through major political changes, such as devolution in the United Kingdom, accession of the United Kingdom to the European Communities, Brexit, Canadian patriation, and the decolonisation of Africa. Between 1956 and 1992, the number of her realms varied as territories gained independence, and as realms, including South Africa, Pakistan, and Ceylon (renamed Sri Lanka), became republics. Her many historic visits and meetings include a state visit to the Republic of Ireland and visits to or from five popes. Significant events have included her coronation in 1953 and the celebrations of her Silver, Golden, and Diamond Jubilees in 1977, 2002, and 2012, respectively. In 2017, she became the first British monarch to reach a Sapphire Jubilee. In 2021, after 73 years of marriage, her husband Prince Philip died at the age of 99. Elizabeth is the longest-lived and longest-reigning British monarch.
