Queen Elizabeth will be laid to rest in a state funeral the like of which the UK has not seen for seventy years. In her unprecedented life as a working royal sovereign she has met countless world leaders and global royalty.
We are still waiting to find out more details of the funeral, including the date, but it is expected to be at Westminster Abbey which normally holds 2,200 congregants. Extra seating can be arranged to accommodate more than 8,000 people, as it did at the Queen's Coronation.
Since her death, tributes have been paid by many of the world leaders she met during her reign. Among them were 13 out of the last 14 US presidents, including Presidents Trump, Obama and George W Bush. Obama's fulsome tribute posted on Twitter said her reign had been "defined by grace, elegance and a tireless work ethic, defying the odds and expectations placed on women of her generation".
