The Queens surname is not Regina Rex. Regina is the Latin term for Queen and Rex the Latin for King. Hence her insignia shows ER, Elizabeth Regina or Queen Elizabeth. The same insignia is used for the King, thus if Prince Charles were to be King and he took the name Charles his would be CR, Charles Rex or King Charles. The Queens insignia also has the Roman Numerals II, acknowledging she is Queen Elizabeth the 2nd.

Julius Caesar. The quote is from Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar" I.2.135. Cassius conversation with Brutus.
Saying Caesar was like a Colossus is saying that he is/was one of the giants of history. The word colossus means giant or extremely large--super sized. The term certainly was appropriate for Caesar due to all he accomplished. Cassius's line "Why man, he doth bestride the narrow world like a Colossus" is a reference to the wonder of the ancient world, the Colossus of Rhodes, which was popularly imagined as a statue of a man so huge that one foot was on either side of the harbour, and boats had to pass between his legs to enter.
The Colossus was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and was located in Rhodes, in Greece.

In contrast, World War I saw earlier forms of codebreaking but did not involve the use of computers like Colossus.
