5. How the Crown Learned from Losing America

The monarchy that King Charles the Third serves today is very different from the monarchy that lost America in 1776. This episode traces how the lessons of the American Revolution shaped the Crown’s relationship with Canada, Australia, New Zealand and eventually the modern Commonwealth. It is the story of how the monarchy adapted after one of the greatest defeats in its history.
