As an American l think the entire royal family thing is wasteful holding on to the past. They have no political use. They exist for pageantry and formal ceremony, but mostly serve as tabloid fodder.
Several nations still hold onto this antiquated tradition. Surely, the money spent on royalty could be spent on something useful instead.
I believe the richest royal family is the one in Thailand.
Do y'all think the world would be better off without royal families? Without them, we'd eliminate a lot of silly fluff that wastes TV time and maybe tabloids could publish actual news instead.
