Coronation

A coronation is a ceremonial event where a monarch, such as a king or queen, is formally crowned and invested with royal authority. This ceremony traditionally includes rituals, oaths, and the presentation of regalia, symbolizing the monarch’s responsibilities and divine right to rule. Coronations often take place in a significant religious venue, like a cathedral, and may feature a wide array of cultural traditions, music, and celebrations. While the act of governing often begins before the coronation, this event marks the official recognition of the monarch's role and their commitment to serve the people.
