The Queen's successor, Prince Charles, will become King at the age of 73

 After the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Charles has finally become the King of Great Britain.

According to Reuters news agency, Prince Charles waited 70 years to become king, the longest wait for any successor in British history.

This role will also be a difficult task for him. His late mother was hugely popular and respected but has left behind a royal family with a tarnished reputation and strained relationships.

One of them is the long-standing allegations of racism against Buckingham Palace.

At the age of 73, King Charles will be the oldest person to hold the crown in the history of the United Kingdom for the past 1,000 years. He is accompanied by his second wife Kamila, about whom the opinion of the British public is divided.

According to critics, the new monarchs are weak, inefficient and underpowered for the role.

His deep interest in ecology and architecture was ridiculed. His failed first marriage to the late Princess Diana will also forever be associated with King Charles.

His supporters say that Charles has been overlooked for good works and that he was ahead of his time and therefore sensitive to climate change.

Supporters of King Charles argue that he is concerned about his citizens from all communities and walks of life.

His Prince's Trust charity has helped more than one million unemployed and disadvantaged youth since its inception nearly 50 years ago.

He once told a TV documentary that the trouble is that 'you keep failing and people complain if you don't do anything. They still complain if you get stuck trying to help.

Throughout his life, Charles was torn between a modern monarchy and a rapidly changing and more egalitarian society that had to maintain royal traditions and the attraction of the institution of monarchy.
