Eh. Old Lizzie did alright toward the end. Her ancestors and governments were quite monstrous (especially that weapon Thatcher). However, she breached protocol during her state visit to Ireland in 2011, to start her speech in a formal Irish language introduction. Further, she came the closest that any monarch that I'm familiar with to offering an actual apology to a former colony for the way that her country had treated them over the centuries.
