We are shocked by this because we don’t have Royalty and never had a feudal system.
Dead people, with no family, assets are taken by the State. In England, it belongs to the State as well, but his rivalry that is the ruling monarch. The Ruling monarch controls Lancaster Castle (war of the Roses stuff).
I don’t see a problem with this.
“I don’t see a problem with this.”
I would not have a problem if the royal family were hung in the town square—but to each his own....
;-)
I think the problem is that the monies (after costs) was supposedly going to charities but instead is used to make more profit for Charles.
Hereditary monarchy is an infantile way of life. Thomas Paine ended that nonsense with “Common Sense”.
