Carlos he knew at an early age that he would become King when his mother decided. He never thought that it would be decades that would have to pass before he could sit on the wooden throne that is 716 years old and that Edward II used for the first time. That day arrived: May 6, 2023.
Isabel II, represented her people for seventy years, and this longevity led to Carlos having an extensive comprehensive training that projected in the minds of historians and political scientists, that the Prince would do the job without shortcuts when the time came.
In many of the television series that exist about the Windsor family, there are scenes where Carlos, a little impatient, met with the prime ministers, to probe his chances that his iconic mother would give him space; one of them, J.oh Major, in the 1990s, he listened to it, but prudently distanced himself from these compromises.
All of the above is left behind Carlosall the events, many of them unfortunate, such as the loss of Diana, the scandals of her brothers and the Aunt Marguerite, they are now part of history.
Charles III He will assume the highest position of the English monarchy on the 6th of May and makes him aware that he will have to turn it around, perhaps with more modern brushstrokes and in an austere manner, however, this reign is looming shorter due to the fact that his son William and his wife Kate enjoy great popularity among their subjects and English realpolitik knows this.
Question… How long has it been before the world sees a coronation in England again?
The answer requires reflection and perhaps those who have not considered watching the great event on television will do so now, as it will undoubtedly be a historical event, as was the inauguration of Elizabeth II on June 2, 1953.
The coronation act has a communication strategy that integrates from television coverage, the participation of the platforms and the traditional parade with floats and horses that gives it an ornamental touch that the English youth of the 21st century do not fully understand, and so it is. reflect the surveys where 64 percent, do not find sense in these acts.
The new King faces the challenge of keeping together the English Commonwealth, made up of 54 nations that maintain historical ties with England, and whose membership is currently voluntary and does not mean submission, including Australia and Canada, but it does help maintain its reputation and a geopolitical balance that dates back to 1926.
The coronation takes place in the midst of the war conflict between Russia and Ukraine and this action means that not all the great leaders of NATO can attend like Joe Biden, the US president who will be represented by his wife Jill.
Finally, dear friends of Merca2.0, the analysis touches on the flank on the kind of reign that Carlos III will lead, which will undoubtedly move away from the methods of his famous mother who always acted under the protocols of Buckingham Palace.
Carlos III will be an activist and will undoubtedly influence Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s agenda.
We’ll meet up ahead.
