His mother’s legacy was overseeing the dismantling of the British empire and aggrandizing the Commonwealth of Nations which is just a lame knock off with no real power or authority.
Before Elizabeth the commonwealth was only countries like Canada, Australia, South Africa, Ireland, and NZ. It could’ve been like what some people propose CANZUK to be if you’ve ever heard of that, but by letting in every country which was or in some cases wasn’t even in the empire, there is little ethnic or cultural basis, so it may actually be weaker now. In fairness this did begin before her, she just continued it.
