when queen elizabeth dies is that it? is prince charles going to be prince forever? will they dismantle buckingham palace and distribute it amongst the population?
and furthermore why are british people so goddamn ugly?
why? because i asked why england is still a monarchy? if i was curious as to why denmark was still a monarchy i would have made a thread about it. whats your fuckin problem?

mad. in any case since you genuinely dont seem to know: there is one ruling monarch, in this case queen elizabeth. she was the eldest child of the previous ruling monarch (George VI). Her eldest child is prince charles, who will become king once she dies. She does cannot resign, which monarchs in the netherlands can.

She can. It's called abdication.

@previous (D) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdication#British_and_Commonwealth_history > Today, because the title to the Crown depends upon statute, particularly the Act of Settlement 1701, a royal abdication can only be effected by an Act of Parliament; under the terms of the Statute of Westminster 1931, such an act must be agreed by the parliaments of all extant signatories of the Statute. To give legal effect to the abdication of King Edward VIII, His Majesty's Declaration of Abdication Act 1936 was passed.
Not really

Nah. Generally, the royal family well-liked. They're seen as a national symbol.

They're all in the peasants pool, so all of the nobility has to die and the peasants will revolt. What happens then, is up to them.
