Original Note:
The Cullinan Diamond (aka the 'Star of Africa') was gifted to Edward VII by Thomas Cullinan, the owner of the Premier No.2 mine in South Africa. The British had no direct involvement in acquiring the diamond, however some have called for it to be returned to South Africa: https://science.howstuffworks.com/environmental/earth/geology/cullinan-diamond.htm
