b'Charles III was crowned king of England on May 6, 2023, the first of its kind in 70 years. He wore regalia that look straight out of a portrait of Charlemagne: the St. Edward\\u2019s Crown, which wegiths five pounds and has 444 gemstones; the \\u201cSovereign\\u2019s Sceptre with Cross,\\u201d a three-foot gold rod set with the largest stone cut from the largest diamond ever discovered; and The \\u201cSovereign\\u2019s Orb,\\u201d a huge sphere that represent his command of the known world. We look the incredibly thick symbolism of this event and compare-and-contrast it to Queen Elizabeth\\u2019s 70 years ago.

To explain the significance of these ceremonies is Jennifer Robson, author of \\u201cCoronation Year,\\u201d a historical fiction book set in 1953, when Elizabeth is about to be crowned.'
