Following the sudden death of her father on February 2, 1952, Elizabeth ascended the throne at the age of 25. She kept her own name, Elizabeth, as her regnal title. Her coronation on June 2, 1953 was the first ever to be televised, with 27 million people watching around the world.

4) The first Indian cricket team tour to England, in 1886

5) Hitler inspecting the massive 800mm “Schwerer Gustav” railway gun from afar. It was the largest-calibre rifled weapon ever used in combat, and fired the heaviest shells of any artillery piece.

6) Lokmanya Tilak was cremated in the sitting legs crossed position (padmasana), a distinction given only to saints.

7) 1940

Back in the day, British heirs didn't attend formal primary school. Instead, Elizabeth and her sister, Princess Margaret.
