QUEEN VICTORIA
维多利亚女王
Princess Elizabeth was Queen Victoria’s great-great-granddaughter. Victoria came to the throne in 1837, at just 18 years old, and she died in 1901. She had reigned longer than any previous king or queen in Britain’s history. Through many royal marriages, her family had spread across Europe, so baby Elizabeth had royal relatives in lots of countries.
伊丽莎白公主是维多利亚女王的曾孙女。维多利亚于1837年登基，年仅18岁，1901年去世。她统治的时间比英国历史上任何一位前任国王或女王都长。通过许多皇室婚姻，她的家族已经遍布欧洲，所以小伊丽莎白在许多国家都有皇室亲戚。 Swimming at the beach was out of the question— after all, this little girl was a princess. However, Elizabeth was about to get a pet, and later a playmate. For her fourth birthday
