The King kind of "rewards" his people for...something...being loyal? I guess..

In the UK, the royalty is, as far as I know, more of a figurehead than the actual ruler like it used to be hundreds of years ago. They don't have absolute power anymore.

It seems that way. I don't think there's a king, isn't it just queen Elizabeth. As far as I know she's...single. I never heard of a king. There's prince William, Charles,...etc. No king. It's probably true that the royal family isn't as involved in ruling the country as say...the prime minister.

But seriously...If Britian is so rich and powerful then why not thank their people...Just shows that Britain is a cheap mother trucker. Saudi Arabia has alot of money and I love it. Its awesome no wonder B _ S H (boosh) wants a peice of the M I D _ L E E _ S T.

Wait, so you're saying Britain shouldn't tax it's people...just because?

I don't know about all this. Although, the queen did crown a number of people knights. Elton John included.
