| Summary/Abstract |
The Queen's impact as Head of the Commonwealth has been a remarkable one. Catapulted into the job at the age of 25, she has filled it for more than 95% of its existence and has impressed it with her own personality: gracious, dignified, charming, interested in other people, morally impeccable, politically absolutely neutral, and without a trace of arrogance or self-satisfaction. Just as most British republicans (a small group), when scratched, agree that it would have been impossible to have had a better head of state than Queen Elizabeth II, so it is almost impossible to find any grounds on which to criticise her conduct as Head of the Commonwealth.

| Summary/Abstract |
The Round Table was founded in 1910 with the aim that it should eventually campaign for some form of imperial federation. Most historians have argued that it was doomed from the start, in particular because it was bound to run up against the rising tide of Dominion nationalism. This paper argues instead that the Round Table was divided internally over federation; that Dominion nationalism was but one of a number of problems confronting the organisation; but also that the key turning point, when federation became no longer a matter of 'practical politics', was World War I.
