Upon the death of King George VI in 1952, Elizabeth ascended the throne and became Queen Elizabeth II. In the following years she had two more sons, Prince Andrew in 1960 and Prince Edward in 1964. During her reign she has achieved a number of impressive milestones, including being the longest-lived sovereign since her 81st birthday in 2007, being the monarch with the longest marriage and becoming Britain’s longest- reigning monarch in 2015. As Queen she has travelled to more than 110 countries during more than 250 international tours and visits.
