In my humble opinion: (1) Canadians are living under the reign/rule of Queen Elizabeth II (P.S. In reality, Canada is an independent nation). (2) Many arts are under the patronage(support) of Her Majesty. (3) She's known him less time THAN (she has known) ME. (4) She's known him less time THAN I (have known him). Thank you for your thought-provoking questions.

alc24which would one say:I wouldn't say any of these. In fact, I wouldn't say any of these either:
Canada is under the rule/reign/patronage of queen Elizabeth.
"The United Kingdom is under the rule/reign/patronage of queen Elizabeth."
Could you expand on the point you are trying to express? Thanks.

She's known him longer than (she has known) me.
She's known him longer than I have (known him).
Two different meanings - one of the few times that the "I/me" will make a difference in meaning.
