Best Answer

There is no monarchy in Cyprus; it is a republic with a president. You may, however, be thinking of Berengaria of Navarre who was married to Richard the Lionheart in Cyprus (the only Queen of England to be married outside of England).

The most famous Queen of Cyprus was Caterina Cornaro, last Venetian ruler of Cyprus. She ruled from 1474 to 1489. The remains of her palace can be seen at Potamia between the cities of Nicosia and Larnaca. Her legacy lives on in Larnaca and Venice being declared twin towns in 2010, and in the Cornaro Institute, an arts centre also based in Larnaca.

The last Queen of Cyprus was, of course, the British monarch Queen Elizabeth II, but she ceased to be the Queen of Cyprus in 1960 when the island gained independence from Britain.

No- it has a President instead. When it was ruled by the British, the British monarch was Head of State, but this has not been the case since Independence in 1960.

Cyprus has no King or Queen- it's Head of State is the President. However, when it was ruled by the British up until 1960, the Head of State was the British monarch.

What materials absorb sound the best and which do not?

Usually, stuff that is soft will absorb sound.answ2. Sound is a vibration of air molecules, and anything that may be made to absorb energy from the molecules will absorb sound. If the material has soft fibres, and can allow the sound to penetrate easily, (is porous) then the collision of sound molecules with the fibres, will transfer the energy from the molecules to the inelastic fibres, where it will be dissipated as heat.
