Officially, the British monarch is "Defender of the Faith and Supreme Governor of the Church of England" but Charles has repeatedly promised to defend all faiths as king. The coronation traditionally takes place some months after a new sovereign has ascended to the throne, following a period of national and royal mourning as well as intense preparation.

It will be the first time a monarch is crowned in the UK in more than 70 years.

In many ways, the coronation will reflect Charles’ wish for a slimmed-down monarchy and his sensitivity to public sentiment. The guy at the centre of the Tampongate scandal. There also won’t be anything like the number of people who attended his mom’s ceremony: in 1953 there were over 8 000 guests, there are expected to be 2 000 next year. It was also the first time a coronation was televised and it drew a global audience of nearly 30 million. The queen was also a young woman in a man’s world, the leader of a nation, the mother of two small children and wife to a sometimes-difficult man. So now we know: the coronation of King Charles III will be on 6 May next year.

She respected local customs, was comfortable operating in a post-colonial environment, and often went against the advice of the British political establishment when approaching issues on the continent.
