      Hi. Interesting story. I’m just going to say a couple of things that you might want to use as you edit. 1) Queen Elizabeth, the wife of King George VI is not properly titled as Queen Elizabeth I. Queen Elizabeth I was the daughter of King Henry VIII; she ruled England and Ireland from 1558-1603. Only true British monarchs are numbered, not their spouses. It is sufficient to say King George VI and his wife Queen Elizabeth, for the purpose of your work. Your readers will know who you are talking about. 2) Do you want to say: “King Peter … of Yugoslavia” to add clarity. Interesting! Good job.
