    Pretty soon you will complain that no one votes...

    I'll go ahead and explain why that is... You did not include the option for none at all.

    It is a sad state of affairs if nobody has got any interest in Europe.

    Well European monarchies are a niche subject.

    The British monarchy makes big news in the US because it seems the most flashy. The others have all downsized and behave more or less like normal people at this point. So for celebrity culture that's boring.

    You're posting mainly in a country that is populated by people who broke away from a monarchy long ago.

    Monarchy is just another word for family lineage of dictators

    To be fair I am not interested in the monarchies at all. But that does not mean I am not interested in European countries. The whole idea of monarchies is silly to me I today's world and seems like backward thinking to me. To think someone gets to lead a country simply for coming out of the right birthing person (try not to offend people here assuming gender) does not seem like the best way to choose a leader. I find it interesting that most left leaning people I know are interested and follow the monarchies, and these are the people that love to match around for equally for all. Truthful speaking you can not have equally for all when a monarchy is in place.

    The European monarchies of today are not the monarchies of 1789.

    Interested in Europe and interested in European monarchies are two different things.

    What do you mean by "interest"?

    No idea why they spend money on maintaining "monarchies" when the monarchs have no power in their countries.

    I went with the UK because I'm Australian and they're always on the news, and Monaco because they do monarchy pretty damn well over there.

    Not that I'm a monarchist, but game recognize game.

    The UK monarchy is in the centre of interest now.
