English Royalty Purpose

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

English Royalty Purpose

Post by Luigi »

I will only use England as my example as it is a much safer nation to discuss these ever so delicate matters.
But even in other countries some more local than others what real purpose do they serve. Just seems like one more drain of resources. But for safeties sake lets stick to Merry Old England. And what makes is so Merry anyway? I found it rather pompous & boring, food bland as pablum, girls fat like.. well fat! And Pasty. Leaden grey skies, cold waters, grumpy old people. etc, etc, ad nauseum.

Anyway back to Englands Royalty. Why? :beer1:
