"It is too easy to dismiss [Leonor of Navarre] as an overambitious schemer who would do anything to obtain a crown, shedding the blood of her own siblings and her subjects in order to attain the throne. However, a deeper investigation of her long lieutenancy and ephemeral reign shows a woman who fought tenaciously to preserve her place but also worked tirelessly to administer a realm which was crippled by internal conflict and the center of the political schemes of France, Aragon, and Castile. She tried to broker peace, fight off those who opposed her, repair the wounds caused by conflict, protect the sovereignty of the realm, and keep the wheels of governance turning. Leonor was not always successful in achieving all of these aims but given the background of conflict and the lack of cooperation she received from all of her family members, bar her loyal husband, it is a huge achievement that she survived to wear the crown at all. Many writers have argued that Leonor deserved the troubled lieutenancy, personal tragedies, an ephemeral reign, and a blackened reputation, basing their assumption that she committed a crime that cannot be [conclusively] proven. However, a more fitting description of her would be that of a resolute ruler who successfully overcame a multitude of challenges in order to survive in a difficult political landscape and gain a hard-fought throne.”

“What's making Kate's photoshop gate a bigger deal than it should be is because they've always been presented as the future of the monarchy. When King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia did it in 2005, it was funny and it launched a bunch of memes but considering their age (and presumably their staff's age) and how new photoshop was at the time, it was more like a whoopsie. Technology has improved so much since then. Right or wrong, it makes them and their whole staff look so incompetent. Is their communication and PR team on vacation? Do they not have quality control? This blunder makes me nervous about how they will deal with more serious issues in the future.” - Submitted by Anonymous

Here we have the 5 men of royal blood who I'd think would have the most fun with sexually. Carl XVI Gustaf, Juan Carlos I, Albert II, Prince of Monaco, Prince Andrew, Duke of York and Prince Carlo, Duke of Castro.

From sex parties with strippers, cheating on their wives and whoring around before and after their marriages. The things I've read about these guys. 

Well, all except for Prince Carlo. He seems pure, but I still like to image he'd be a great fuck.
