My family quit dealing with the whole royalty thing early, we had a signer on the declaration, and as family folklore has it, a participant in the Boston Tea Party :). But I still feel ties to Britain. Pretty funny how close the two countries are after having had a war over our independance. Excuse my ignorance, but does the royal family still have political power beyond just being influential figureheads? Who runs the place, the Queen? Tony Blair? Parliament? Who gets elected, and who do you get no choice over?

Most countries got rid of their "royality" many moons ago. Britain's funny like that.

OT: who will be the next king?

Since Prince Charles is going to marry the divorced Camilla Parker Bowles, will he still be the next king? Is she royalty, or is she a commoner? If he can't be king, who will be king, his son or his brother?
