4. They remain figureheads

both in the UK and in The Commonwealth which in aggregate has 3 billion citizens. That helps explain why despite the 30 or so here on DU who won't watch the wedding an anticipated 2 billion will do so.

I'm not saying I'll bother but if nothing else its worth seeing the inside of Westminster Abbey. Oh I forgot - you've got simply loads of 1000 year old churches with 1500 year old foundations over there. :sarcasm:
