Ceremonial is a formal act or series of acts that are customary or prescribed on important ceremonial occasions. Certain communities or peoples express their identity, i.e. social affiliation and unity, through ceremonies. By attending the ceremony, those present connect and understand the importance of the ceremony for the whole in which it takes place. The manner of conducting the ceremony, i.e. all questions of the organization of the ceremony, are resolved by protocol. With its strict rules, the Protocol provides a framework to support international relations and negotiations. In Great Britain, one of the most important ceremonial events was the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II in 2022. A state funeral is the highest possible honor that can be paid to a person, and attending such a ceremony is of great importance for every diplomat. In this way, diplomats show that they accept the traditions of other cultures and establish mutual understanding and promote national interests. The funeral of Queen Elizabeth II was a difficult diplomatic challenge accompanied by national and world media and fulfilled the purpose of holding such a ceremony, which will be shown by analyzing the media content published on September 19, 2022, the day of Queen Elizabeth II's funeral.
