has the queen ever knighted someone outside the uk?

Question

who is it please

could you say what country there from

Answer 1

Yes, she has. She gave an honorary knighthood to Ronald Reagan, of all people! Thank God he's not allowed to use it!

Plenty of Australians have received knighthoods, such as Sir James Killen and Sir Paul Hasluck. Governors-general in Australia usually receive a knighthood.

If a knighthood is bestowed on someone who is not a member of the Commonwealth, they are not allowed to use the honorific 'Sir'.

Answer 2

i think of American submit-innovative Statute regulation in all probability has some extremely particular and particularly salty issues to assert approximately any of that's electorate being Knighted via distant places Rulers. They have been particularly in contact that their human beings be lured right into a counter-Revolution, so the distant places Rulers they have been questioning approximately in the early days have been in all probability British. A Knighthood is bestowed as an honour, and to foreigners creating a contribution to the united kingdom. you are able to no longer even use the call except you're a British Citizen, so foreigners getting an honourary Knighthood, are turning out to be worldwide acceptance, and an an Honourary Honour. Had they been British electorate, here might in all probability have been made friends of the area. ordinary Sir H. Norman Schwarzkopf Jnr. ("everybody i understand already calls me Sir.")

Official knighthoods are only bestowed on subjects of the United Kingdom or other Commonwealth countries (such as Canada or Australia). Since they aren't restricted to British citizens, there are dozens (if not hundreds) who have received such honors.
