Detail About MCQs

The Queen has been Barbados’s head of state since it became independent in 1966 but Dame Sandra Mason will be sworn in as its first president. Barbados, a former British colony, has become the world’s newest republic. The country removed Queen Elizabeth as head of state overnight, breaking its last remaining imperial bonds with Britain nearly 400 years since the first English ship arrived at the Caribbean island. Barbados will remain a republic within the Commonwealth, a grouping of 54 countries across Africa, Asia, the Americas, Europe, and the Pacific that has always been a priority for Elizabeth, who heads it.
