Queen Elizabeth's funeral entered history, attended by 4 billion people on television

It is believed that the funeral has been attended on television by 4.1 billion people worldwide. Only this fact is enough to prove that Elizabeth has entered history as the most ikeonic figure for the modern version of the monarchy after 96 years of life and 70 years on the throne.

The cost of the ceremony, with 2,000 official guests, is estimated to be at least $7.5m, including dozens of heads of states from around the world, as well as members of traditional aristocracy, kings, follows abcnews.al.

There were 10,000 police on the streets of London to maintain security. As hundreds of thousands of ordinary people lined up to bid farewell to the queen who led the country for 70 years.

Elizabeth's funeral will no doubt go to history as the first ceremony of this kind in modern Britain to be organised by the state itself after 1965. At that time, the funeral of Winston Churchill, the prime minister of the United Kingdom, was paid from the British state budget, as he is remembered as a figure who led the international fight against Nazism.

And earlier, the greatest funeral of a sovereign house was that of Elizabeth's father, King George VI, in 1952.

Although there is increasing concern over the astronomical cost of funerals and all participants in Britain, despite the fact that costs are not met only by British taxpayers, as they are partly covered by the royal dynasty itself, the country's worldwide promotion is considered to bring in multiple profits. Britain's magic and the attraction of even more tourists has always been largely based on preserved royal traditions.

Britain is at the top of world news for nearly two weeks, while the mortore ceremony is expected to pass any previous record of greatness and visibility.

No previous event in the modern history of the United Kingdom can compare with Elizabeth's funeral, not even the farewell ceremony for Princess Diane, who lost her life prematurely in 1997. /abcnews. al
