I like how the video is so old that there wasn't even a hunger system implemented in Minecraft yet

I love how you said "why do Americans not like French castles compared to English ones" and compared a French castle with a French castle

You're missing the amazing opportunity here. The Republic of Wales England Northern Ireland and Scotland, or the Republic of WENIS for short

I suggest that the reason Britain's castles are more popular than Frances is because English is spoken in Britain.

2:55 I'm 100% sure that it's in France. Saint-Michel Mt. By the way, it alone makes 2 million tourists and 80 million euros profit. France's tourism is in another dimension, rosbif.

As a Spaniard I am wondering if the same thing applies to Spain... but I don't think we get any tourism because of the royal family, it's probably mostly our beaches and clubs that attract them

Although I found the video very interesting I think there are a couple of factors that aren't taken in. Mainly those not being the real numbers/ possessions of the royal family. If you count all the possesions of the Queen of England worldwide it's benefits are ginormus if i remember correctly, mostly from the commonwealth, taking a share of oil production, etc. I think this would be a very interesting stuff to go in depth, and i would like to compare the European monarchies.
