With gun salutes and tolling bells, Britain is marking the first anniversary of the death of Queen Elizabeth II and the ascension of King Charles III, who remembered his mother as a symbol of stability during her 70-year reign.
Charles and Queen Camilla are observing the anniversary at the family estate in Scotland and attended a service of remembrance at a small church nearby, where the late queen worshipped.
The queen’s death triggered an outpouring of national mourning as hundreds of thousands of people filed past her coffin to honor the only monarch most had ever known. But Charles has moved smoothly into his new role, avoiding controversy and concentrating on building bridges between the four nations that comprise the United Kingdom and the myriad ethnic and religious groups that make up its population.
