Following the passing of the British Queen, Elizabeth II, Twitter users began a new trend by highlighting the Koh-i-Noor diamond’s origins and calling for the Royal Family and the British Museum to return the diamond as well as several other artefacts that were taken from a number of nations that were once a part of the British Empire.

Pictured here is the Kohinoor diamond. Stolen by the British and now in the hands of their Royal Family.
