“ Queen Elizabeth II was born on 21 April 1926. She married Prince Phillip, the Duke of Edinburgh and acceded to the throne on 6 February 1953. The seat of monarchy is in Great Britain. In the other nations of the Commonwealth of which the Queen is head of State, her representative is the Governor-General. The Queen’s eldest son- Prince Charles, Prince of Wales- is the heir to the throne. He was married to Diana, who was killed in a car crash in Paris. Their two sons are William and Harry. Diana devoted her life to her sons and charity work. The second child and the only daughter of Queen Elizabeth is Princess Anne. Prince Andrew is the third child of the Queen. He was married to Srah Ferguson, but their marriage ended in 1996. The youngest of the Queen´s sons is Prince Edward.
The Parliament makes the laws of the UK. It consists of the Sovereign, the House of Lords and the House of Commons. The British constitution, unlike that of most of other countries, is not written as a single document. It is based on traditions, customs and written law. The Sovereign formally summons and dissolves Parliament and generally opens each new annual session with a speech from the throne. The House of Lords is the upper House. The Lords have the power to send back legislation to the Commons to be changed if they don´t like it. The members of the House of Lords are not elected. They consist of hereditary and life peers and peeresses ( a life time honour is given them for achievment in civil service and other areas), including the law lords appointed to undertake the judicial duties of the House, and the Lords Spiritual (the Archbishops of Canterbury and York and other 24 bishops)."
