Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II died yesterday September 08, 2022, at the place she loved the most – Balmoral Castle. Her elder son Prince Charles ascended to the throne. We are living through history. In the coming days, the events of the day Queen Elizabeth II died and a few days after that would be part of the Great British History. Let’s have a look at what happened on the Day 1 of the Carolean Era. (Please note that the Day’s details are in descending order)

Tomorrow will be the day when the Royal Pomp and Pageantry starts. Many of us have never seen them before because many of us even our parents might have known only one British Monarch. Saturday would be another Day in History.

By the time Day 1 of the Carolean Era ended we had the following confirmation for the next events:

  • The King, The Queen Consort, and The Princess of Wales will be attending the Accession Council’s meeting at the St. James’ Palace in London at 10 AM Local Time. For the first time in history, the meeting will be televised. From the Accession Council’s website,

“After the Accession Council, Garter King of Arms, accompanied by the Earl Marshal (who is responsible for the ceremonial arrangements relating to the Proclamation), other Officers of Arms and the Sergeants at Arms, will read the Proclamation from the Balcony above Friary Court, St James’s Palace. Gun salutes will coincide with the Proclamation.

Once the Proclamation has been read, the Heralds will travel to Mansion House in the City of London. The Proclamation will then be read at the Royal Exchange in the presence of the Lord Mayor of the City of London and the City Civic party. The Proclamation will also be read out publicly in Edinburgh, Cardiff, and Belfast and in other locations according to custom.

I will end the day with this Behind the Scene video from the recording of King Charles III’s first national address. No words, just tears.

In the evening At St. Paul’s Cathedral, a service of prayer and reflection was held where the King’s address was broadcast. The moment the change of Era actually hit many of us.

 

After 7 decades, The United Kingdom sang ‘God Save The King’.

Another Historic moment, was when The King bestowed the much-awaited title of The Prince and Princess of Wales on his elder son, Prince William, and his wife Catherine.  A source said,

“The Prince and Princess of Wales are focussed on deepening the trust and respect of the people of Wales over time. They will approach their roles in the modest and humble way they’ve approached their work previously. The new Princess of Wales appreciates the history associated with this role but will understandably want to look to the future as she creates her own path.”

His Majesty The King addresses the Nation and the Commonwealth. “Throughout her life, Her Majesty The Queen – my beloved Mother – was an inspiration and example to me and to all my family, and we owe her the most heartfelt debt any family can owe to their mother.”

As The Queen herself did with such unswerving devotion, I too now solemnly pledge myself, throughout the remaining time God grants me, to uphold the Constitutional principles at the heart of our nation.

And to my darling Mama, as you begin your last great journey to join my dear late Papa, I want simply to say this: thank you. Thank you for your love and devotion to our family and to the family of nations you have served so diligently all these years – King Charles III

King Charles III held his first audience with British Prime Minister Liz Truss. Liz Truss was appointed the Prime Minister of the country by Queen Elizabeth II earlier this Tuesday at Balmoral Castle. That turned out to be The Queen’s last public engagement.

This afternoon, The King held an Audience at Buckingham Palace with the Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon. Liz Truss MP.
