The death on Thursday of Queen Elizabeth II at the ripe old age of 96 ended the second-longest monarchy in the history of the world: 70 years and 214 days on the British royal throne.
As one of the steadiest and most powerful rulers in history, Her Majesty displayed the kind of influence that touched the entire world. That includes the good things, such as overseeing the decolonization of countries taken over by her nation and becoming the first British monarch to address the U.S. Congress, and the bad, such as the long-standing royal income tax exemption that was reversed in the 1990s and her family's many tumultuous scandals.
All of these events as well as the woman's own legend have rubbed off on the pop culture, swarming all of us, no matter how little of it we consume — whether it was to celebrate her nation and lift people's spirits or to knock her down a peg or two by questioning the very need for a modern monarchy. Here's just a taste of the mark she made on pop culture.
