Ok but now that you have brought the camilla in uniform-ish outfit from ttc, as a military person yourself what is your standpoint about the royals who are not in the military but wear the uniform?

Masaa el kayhr it is 2130 in Bahrain and I have risen from the dead and chosen violence once again. *sips covfefe*

A list of modern (post-George VI) BRF members and their tenure of military service:

Queen Elizabeth II - Auxiliary Territorial Service, Subaltern -> Junior Commander, WWII Lord High Admiral BAMF, HRH The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and Slayer of Nazis - Royal Navy, 1940 - 1953 although never formally discharged from service, Midshipman -> Commander (active duty), WWII King Charles III - Royal Navy, 1971 - 1976 Princess Anne - *crickets* Prince Andrew - Royal Navy, 1979 - 2001, Falklands War Prince Edward - Royal Marines, 1986 - 1987 Prince William - Royal Air Force, 2006 - 2013 Prince Harry - British Army Air Corps, 2005 - 2015, Afghanistan Now. Which one is the one, using the fandom's words, playing dress up every time they show up in a uniform? Why is it when the one without any tenure of military service is hyped up, encouraged, and idolized for doing so, whereas Ed is deemed a fake and relegated to cosplaying? You cannot have separate standards for this, otherwise it makes you look silly and, frankly, ignorant at best.

If we're going to constantly be triggered by uniform regulations and who does/does not "deserve" to wear them, then it should be applied across the board, which yes, includes Harry not shaving while in uniform. Personally, (USN, Electronics Technician 2nd Class, 2012 - , Operation Inherent Resolve) I'm Unbothered™. It's usually done for ceremonies where some royals hold honorary positions in the military. It is an honor that was granted them, ergo they have the right to wear it (hopefully correctly). It has zero effect on my life whatsoever, and I have more important things to stress about here in 5th Fleet where Iran is constantly fucking around and trying to find out. Y'all stay more pressed than my dress blues.

#royal fandom #y'all stress about uniforms more than I do before inspection

Anne is going to the Falklands for 6 days… feels excessive even if the actual visit only is for 4 days and the other two for arrival and departure.

Anyway, her visit ends on November 22, which makes me hopeful because that’s a bigger chance that William and Kate will be the ones to receive the president of South Africa and escort him to BP.

So I'm going to come out and just say it but I'm going to be soo disappointed if they don't step up and do more events like these.. I'm soo over the excuses by people about this matter when they are literally NEXT in line.. they have been afforded great privilege to raise their kids and be a family.. time to step up

On November 7th 1619 Elizabeth Stuart was crowned Queen of Bohemia.

Elizabeth was the eldest daughter of James VI,  and Anne of Denmark. She was thus sister to King Charles I and cousin to King Frederick III of Denmark. 

Born in at Falkland Palace, Fife,on 19th August 1596, she was named Elizabeth in honour of the then-ageing English Queen, Elizabeth I, who had remained childless. Her older brothel was Prince Henry, of her other siblings, Charles would however go on to inherit the throne.

To all intents and purposes, Elizabeth had a happy upbringing at Linlithgow Palace, one of the grandest of Scotland’s royal residences, and one of my favourite places to wander around. 

In 1603 her father James succeeded Elizabeth I to the English throne. Elizabeth was handed over to the care of Lord and Lady Harrington and took up residence at Coombe Abbey, Warwickshire.

Lord Harrington indulged her passion for nature, and in a secluded wilderness at the end of the park arranged the construction of a number of little wooden buildings in all the different orders of architecture which housed paintings and stuffed animals. He also established an aviary and a miniature menagerie (she continued to collect various animals throughout her life) which was later expanded to include meadows stocked with the smallest breeds of cattle from Jersey, Shetland and the Isle of Man. Elizabeth referred to her miniature world as ‘her Territories’ and ‘her Fairy farm’ and she engaged a pauper family as keeper of her birds and beasts.

Elizabeth idolised her older brother - they shared a love of life which eluded the sickly Charles, four years younger than his sister. Her letters to her brother Henry reveal a deep affection and and mutual respect. In 1605 she writes ‘My noble brother, I rouse you from sleep to remind you that I am your most humble servant, and desire above all that I might have the pleasure of remaining in your good graces and your best loved sister.’

Henry’s sickness and death on November 6, 1612, in the midst of Elizabeth's betrothal celebrations devastated her. It is not mentioned in Elizabeth’s letters of 1612 or 1613, a silence that suggest great mourning however her strength of character can be demonstrated by her attempts to gain access to Henry’s isolated sick room. Disguised as a country girl, she tried several times to gain admittance to Henry but was recognised and turned back. Henry’s  last words were his sister’s name.

By the age of 12 Elizabeth’s political value was such that a member of the influential Hapsburg family, King Philip III of Spain, put himself forward as a eligible suitor. While Queen Anne relished the opportunity of a glittering Spanish throne, James’ mind was set on a Protestant:Frederick V, Prince Palatine of the Rhine in the Holy Roman Empire, frequently known as the Palsgrave.

Luckily for Elizabeth, Frederick was her own age, handsome, athletic, of a winning personality and generous. In many ways he resembled her brother Henry, with whom he developed a deep friendship. Frederick could not fail to love Elizabeth although she was initially more reserved.

On Valentine’s Day 1613, a spectacular wedding ceremony took place in the Royal Chapel at Whitehall Palace in London. At the time of their marriage, Elizabeth and her young groom Frederick V were destined to achieve international power and influence. However, by 1621, Elizabeth was in exile, destined to be remembered as the ‘The Winter Queen’, a derogatory epitaph that reflects the short duration of her rule in Bohemia, with her union with Frederick deemed a political failure.For almost two months, the young couple were feted and feasted in London before setting out on their journey to their new home in Heidelberg, in south west Germany.  Elizabeth and Frederick eventually reached the Palatinate and its capital in Heidelberg situated on the banks of the river Neckar.

Six years later, in late 1619, Frederick and Elizabeth were crowned King and Queen of Bohemia (today part of the Czech Republic) at the invitation of the Bohemia Confederacy to prevent a Catholic incumbent ascending to the throne. Barely a year after receiving the crown, the couple were defeated at the Battle of the White Mountain, and driven from their court in Prague and deprived of all their Palatine lands by the Hapsburg Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand II, events which led to one of the longest and most destructive conflicts in human history:The Thirty Years War.

During their separations whilst Frederick was on campaign, the couple wrote to each other three or four times a week, sometimes even twice in one day. Frederick describes Elizabeth as his ‘only heart’, he ‘kisses her mouth a million times in imagination’.

Frederick died unexpectedly from the plague at Mainz while on perpetual military campaign in 1632. So long as she lived, Elizabeth’s rooms were draped in black, and in memory of Frederick special days were set apart for fasting.  She later wrote ‘though I make a good show in company, yet I can never have any more contentment in this world, for God knows I had none but that which I took in his company, and he did the same in mine.’

Elizabeth lived on in the Dutch Republic for a further 30 years, in voluntary exile, returning to England in 1661, a year before her death and a year after the restoration of her nephew, Charles II.

It is through Elizabeth’s daughter, Sophie, the Hanoverians went on to became our  monarchs.
