The British Royal Family :A History

Well,I have lot of curiosity about the practical life of British people in India .We all know that our country was the matter of subordination in the past for 200 years under British people .What we know about them is just limited to our study books under syllabus on the political level ..But I want to know more than the syllabus books of 8th ,9th,10th etc etc .When I was in these classes I would used to think of it extremly boring as subject because I had to remember ..I couldn't understand that it is story of the past ...I don't needed to remember ..I need to take it as good vintage story ..but anyway ,.Anyhow I passed my examination reading it  but now I understand the chronology of the story. ..There is nothing new in today's time politics ..Everything is based on past .So Keeping the topic intact let me tell you about Royal British family which is still in existence with great power (along with parliament) .I wanted to know the dynast of the family ...their ancestors ..In my research I have made my writing according to my understanding in the simplest way possible . In this blog ,I will talk about the present time British family ancestors . 

(King george V of England ,the patriarch of queen elizabeth 11 )Let's go little back to know that from where queen elizabeth 2 comes from ..How is their family tree . 
Queen Mary ,the grand mother of queen elizabeth 2)                                                  King George 5 (1865-1936) married Queen Mary (1867-1953). This pair had 6 child together .I am going to list all the 6 child of the couple .You need to understand things quite carefully because their family tree is little big and can be confusing as well .So ,The six child comes as follows .                              1)King Edward (prince Albert victor ) born on 1894 and died on 1972 .  2)Albert (Later king George 6)  3)Princess Mary (the only daughter of Queen and the king ,the aunt of queen elizabeth 11) .she was born on 1897 and died on 1965 . 4)Prince Henry ,born on 1900 and died on 1974. 5)Prince George ,born on 1902 and died on 1942 . 6)Prince John ,born on 1905 and died on 1919 ..he died at aged 13 .          From Each each of  king george V and queen Mary ,they had 9 grandchildren .Their grand children follows like this.                                1)Elizabeth 2 (the successor of throne because king eldest child &elizabeth 2's uncle remained childless ...so queen ascended the throne later because she was the eldest grandchild among all..she was the eldest daughter of King George 6 . 2)Princess Margaret (she is  king george 6 's younger daughter & queen elizabeth 2's little sister ,she lived her own life away from limelight ) 3)george lascelles (the elder child of king george 5 's third son and his wife ,very few known about him) 4)Gerald lascelles (the younger son of George 5's third son and his wife ) 5)Prince William (Elder son of Prince Henry (governer general of Australia and his wife lady Alice ) 6)Prince Richard (youngest son of Prince Henry and his wifeady Alice )  7)Prince Edward (the elder son of Prince George (the Duke of Kent ) and his wife princess marina (the princess of Greece ) . 8)Princess Alexandra (the only daughter of Prince George and his wife marina ..and the only female cousin of queen elizabeth 2 ) 9)Prince michael (the younger son and the 3rd child of Prince George and his wife marina .. unfortunately he died at aged 13 resembled his uncle  Prince John (his father younger brother ).                                                        So,The queen elizabeth 2 is the eldest among her cousins .She has 6 male cousin and 1 female cousin named as Princess Alexandra ..because queen has her own sister name princess Margaret .So ,In total she was the successor of the throng among 9,and at the younge age of 18, she ascended the throne after her father king george V1 (the last emperor of India ). In nutshell ,Out of 6 children of king george V and queen Mary ..only four of them had child ..(youngest child remained childless and the youngest died at the age of 13) ..From the 4 child ,they had 9 grandchildren and elizabeth 2 was the eldest .                              I hope ,You enjoy reading as I tried to sum up little simple ...See you in the next blog where I will talk about the family tree of queen elizabeth 11 and her husband Philip .Read Next

My day on stage

It was 13.12.2023 ....I woke up early in the morning because I had to write my assignment .....Usually I wake up around 7'0 clock when i have no where to go about .... When I have to go then i wake up early because its take alot for me to get out from the sleep zone and focus on to the wordly activities. ...But this morning was quite different because I had to rush to deliver my topic on the stage . I was excited so it didn't take me much to zone out from the sleep. Usually Mornings are calm for me ...I am in no speaking zone but that day my mind was constantly speaking inwards about VS Naipaul. A Diasporic Author who is known across the world for his terrific writing in fiction . I had chosen this topic to deliver on the stage while all my mates had chosen common topic among them called Train to Pakistan which i had no idea about ...when i reached there in the hall I realized that only i m delivering topic on diasporic and felt out of blue but composed myself becau...

A love letter to the year 2023 💌

Its so obvious that when a year is passing then its defintely a flow of emotions ,mixed feelings of keeping something with you and the idea of letting it go gives you euphoria packed with dichotomy .      Well ,Talking about the year 2023 ,Its been a good year with lots of ups and downs in my mental and  physical state . Looking back to the start of the year ...I find how things changes and how fast the day and night changes ... Those changes really put you through some amazing experience which you want to keep close  forever because you know that whatever the experience is be it good ,bad or ugly ...you can't create it again ..Every year gives you some moments of nostalgia ,some moments that you want to repeat again  ,while some moments you never want to visit ...A reflection of year gives you insight about how you were in the start of the year and what a year changes in your inner self nd in your sorroundings . I think that life is a beautiful journey mix...

The moment of Curiosity and Learning :2013

When I talk about the moment of Curiosity and Learning then its literally take me to the year 2013 ...Yes ,You heard it right ...The Year 2013 when I was in my most curious state of mind because that was the year where i was appearing for my first board exam and i had lots of anxiety and curiousity going in my mind about future ..about how will i hold my life and how i will able to mould it the way i want ? But ,the most important thing was in my mind that "will i secure good marks" because the classmate i had back then were someone who would use to talk more and act less so they all had made it look like that its the cake walk for them and my mind was full of self doubt because i never felt like this and i don't think that anything is cake walk for me but anyway ....All of this sudden self doubt went away when i stood first in the that batch and the one who bragged stood nowhere ...that was my first lesson that never get carried away by someone 's pretentanious thing...
