I wonder how many people knew this:

"Gates has been awarded the title KBE, or Knight Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, for his contribution to enterprise, employment, education and the voluntary sector in the U.K., and for his efforts to reduce poverty in the developing world, including parts of the British Commonwealth."

"As part of the ceremony to present the decoration, Gates will kneel before the monarch, who will tap him on the shoulder with a sword. The motto of the order of chivalry is "For God and the Empire.""

King Charles's coronation will include a pledge of allegiance from the people. Here's what it will look like.

"The Archbishop of Canterbury has asked members of the public to pledge their allegiance to King Charles III during his coronation on Saturday."

"It's the first time in history the public has been invited to declare allegiance to a new sovereign."
