Tradition says they wait about a year after the king/queen dies to crown a new one.I thought this already happened. I have never understood why so many in this country care.

Uh … okay.Tradition says they wait about a year after the king/queen dies to crown a new one.
I'm with you but I've always been intrigued that the royal lines can be traced back 1000 years. I can imagine what the 1800s might've been like, but can't fathom life in 1075 for instance. Or even earlier during the Viking raids. Our country is so young that that's one thing we don't have - an incredibly long history with castle ruins still standing and locations where battles took place in the year 900. That's just me though. I'm sure many Americans care because they grew up watching The Princess Bride or something.I thought this already happened.

Who said I was entertained?Easily entertained. Congrats. It’s a blessing.
Where is Johnny Rotten when you need him?
I love seeing Chateaus and castles and cobbled streets that have been in place for ages. I think learning about royalty of the Middle Ages is fun. I just don’t care about the modern day royals and I don’t understand the fascination.I'm with you but I've always been intrigued that the royal lines can be traced back 1000 years.

You gotta think William will take out a lot of this stuff when it’s his turn.That's my interest too. Pretty crazy the origins and longevity of some of these traditions apparently going all the way back to the unification.
To that end, in today's day and age I wonder how much longer some of these traditions will remain intact.

I couldn’t give a damn about the royals necessarily, but the history and pomp is super interesting to me.
It's wild going to Europe and going to a pub older than the USI'm with you but I've always been intrigued that the royal lines can be traced back 1000 years.

The King is gone but he's not forgotten, at least.
Had no idea you were an American woman.Charles finally got his crown. Give the Brits their due, they know how to put on a ceremony. Looks like William's youngest son is about to fall asleep, and Kate is watching him like a hawk.
Had no idea you were a dick, duly notedHad no idea you were an American woman.
I’m pretty sure you knew that. But for a dude to gaf about the coronation of a country we fought to get away from (given we’re Allies now) is pretty Kardashian/pop of you.Had no idea you were a dick, duly noted
I noticed you on about 4 different threads today talking s*** to lots of posters, You must really have a problem with your self esteem or something. Get a life.I’m pretty sure you knew that.

Haha no just enjoying my Sunday. I only shit on people saying dumb things bro.I noticed you on about 4 different threads today talking s*** to lots of posters, You must really have a problem with your self esteem or someting. Get a life.
But the tourists and tv money only comes in because of people watching and why are they? Like literally why? To see rich people get richer? Would you watch Elon play with his computer at tesla?Agree about the billion dollars being put to better use.
However I would assume the ceremony brought in a ton of tourist and tv money.
Kate Middleton might be one of the classiest and attractive women around.
Yeah we don’t have much history besides kicking all their asses or saving them. What has Britain’s done for us? We’re Allie’s and I appreciate them, but did they ever do anything for us besides actually try and keep us from being a settled country under our own rule?I'm with you but I've always been intrigued that the royal lines can be traced back 1000 years.
