In a ceremony harking back a thousand years, King Charles III has been crowned king. The man who waited almost 74 years to become king, has gone through a ceremony at Westminster Abbey in London with all the pomp and pageantry Britain can muster.
Key Points
- The service was led by Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury, and ceremonial head of the worldwide Anglican church.
- The King promised to foster an environment in which people of all faiths and beliefs may live freely, and to govern his people with justice.
- Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Governor-General David Hurley were representing Australia. Other Australians invited included comedian Adam Hills, musician Nick Cave, and soccer star Sam Kerr.
