On one level Britain is a secular country, while the coronation process itself is highly religious.The British are generally not known for their flamboyance, assumed tight-lipped and cold; and yet they parade to the world like no other nation.

In this highly symbolic act the monarch is disrobed; their outer garments, those which distinguish them as a ruler, are taken off.Sustainable, future labs.
