	This quiz is way too American.

	According to V for Vendetta, Zara ends up ruling. Long live the queen!

	If Oliver Cromwell wasn't such a nutter, we might all have been spared.

	It's kinda sad that her daughter comes after most of her grandchildren.

	Come on Americans, admit it. You're jealous aren't you? If you like, we'll send you a couple of them.

	kingstony, I think you meant "politics are parasites".

	I didn't know Prince Edward had a son.

	chrismet:	Dec 3rd, 2009 at 08:09 GMT	24 points
	More money comes from the crown estates that is paid to them in the civil list. As Rzeziol states recent news shows the politicians as the parasites not the Royal Family.

	@recklessness: he's pretty young. Unfortunately, so young I can't remember his name, only his title, which unfortunately isn't being accepted :(

	Harry is pretty cool but let's not forget good old Zara

	@Jimmy, but the royal family aren't in charge are they? They have a purely ceremonial and pretty nominal role in the running of this country. I see you missed the point about the money from the Crown Estates exceeding the amount spent on them in the form of the civil list, how convenient. As for them doing as you say 'bugger all' well that is true of quite a few of them but people like the Queen, Prince Charles and Princess Anne do a lot of work.

	@yellow_eie Known as Prince Harry, his actual name is Henry Charles Albert David.

	@ Jimmy - you do realise that the entire Royal family cost about 63p per British citizen, per year? Considering the international position/power, the tourism and, as has already been mentioned, the revenue from Royal estates, etc I think my 62p is very well spent! If you don't think they do much work then I suggest you actually look into how much they do!

	After Zara, who is next in line?

	@tigerschick: How come you get a discount???

	pottedstu:	Dec 3rd, 2009 at 14:56 GMT	6 points
	This would have been interesting if it had more people. The Duke of Clarence? Freddie Windsor? Frank Windsor? I've no idea who's next.

	riddler:	Dec 3rd, 2009 at 14:58 GMT	15 points
	After Zara, it moves to the children of the Queen's sister, Princess Margaret. So, Viscount Linley and his children; then Lady Sarah Armstrong-Jones (or Sarah Chatto as she now is) and her children. The lien of succession then moves to the Queen's cousins: the Duke of Gloucester, the Duke of Kent and Prince Michael of Kent (who cannot inherit the throne, having married a Roman Catholic, but whose children can)

	Barbara Windsor? :D

	Getting rid of the royal family will be the final nail in the coffin for British history. We're a nation whose culture is determined by the people who settle here. The only thing we have is the royal family to link us to our history. They are indicative of our culture and getting rid of them would be disasterous.

	Why is this quiz under the History catagory when it's actually about what could happen in the future?

	adam999:	Dec 3rd, 2009 at 15:42 GMT	28 points
	do you see a future category?

	greebles:	Dec 3rd, 2009 at 15:47 GMT	20 points
	I agree tomh9876! I personally like having the Royal family around. There serve as a nice part of our culture and bring in a lot of tourism! Do people visit Buckingham palace to see the building? No, they do it because of the monarchy. All culture has an upkeep cost, and without culture, life is boring.

	Waiting for King Ralph.

	@riddler: Marrying a Roman Catholic disqualifies one from occupying the throne? Maybe it's because I'm American (and, ahem, Catholic), but that shocked me when I read it. I realize there is no separation of church and state in England, so I guess it shouldn't be shocking, but . . . I just never thought about it that way.

	Esme:	Dec 3rd, 2009 at 16:29 GMT	5 points
	Whoa, I figured I'd do as badly on this as I would on a soccer...er, football quiz. All those sleazy American tabloid shows are finally paying off! I could probably do a Suitors of the Hilton Daughters quiz next.

	It's a bit inconsistent that the princes' titles are accepted for them, but not for the Princess Royal.

	JohnJF:	Dec 3rd, 2009 at 16:57 GMT	6 points
	@darth_shrimper: Having royalty is a moneymaker in the UK because it has a lot of history; it wouldn't be in the US because it would just be a publicity stunt.

	Queen Zara! Has the sound of a comic-book sci-fi character! Hail Queen Zara of the Britons! Long live Queen Z.

	Aw heck why limit it to 12? I know her cousins better than her grandchildren...

	jasonc_22:	Dec 3rd, 2009 at 17:51 GMT	15 points
	the king or queen of the united kingdom is also defender of the faith- specifically, the Chruch of England. Catholics need not apply. Discriminatory? Hell yes. Just just the way it is? Yeppers.
