Thanks, but it's not as cool as yours. You have a skull head, I'm just a stupid king. xD
(Literally, I'm matching the character of a very stupid king)

How many items have I got on? xD
Only... seven visible ones. Then I have a waistcoat and a shirt I bought but you can't even really see. xD
Uuuh.... it's based on the fictional TV interpretation of a genuine English prince and later on king. He was apparently a bit of a womanizer, with an appetite... and for TV they made him thick too because he was probably inbred. And heck, it's funny.
And because the main character, his Butler, needs everyone around him to be stupid, because that's the basis of the show - the clever butler Blackadder controls everyone.

I don't know a whole lot about monarchs. Looks to me like Louis XVI but a little less elaborate XD.

@ Captain:
"I may have the body of a weak and feeble woman.
But I have the heart and stomach of a conrete elephant."
@ Femme:
I saw this South Park episode yesterday in which the British tried to reclaim America and I nearly wet myself. xD
I love the 'redcoat opressors' image.
Funnily enough, we've never studied the American Revolution. xD
We've studied the French Revolution because we don't give a shit what those cheese-eating surrender monkeys do to their monarchs. xD;;

Uh oh XD I'm sensing a rivalry here. You know, it's funny. The French helped out in the American Revolution against the British, but then America was all "we don't like you anymore" or something. I'm not quite sure. I don't really get rivalries between countries carrying among all of the people centuries later o_o.

@ Femme - well, it's only teasing rivalry xD
We think the French are pussies and they think we're uncultured yobs who fail when it comes to learning the sophisticated tongue of French.
Meh, English has thousands and thousands of French-derived words. It's practically French...

XD and German.
But that's because of that one guy that came from France and became King...
And also because English, unlike French, is not regulated by an academy. For better or for worse... *looks at the internet*

Yup, the Normans (led by Will) brought 10,000 new words.
What I find incredible is that Shakespeare invented 2,000 words.
How fucking incredible is that?! The French were bringing an ENTIRELY different language, and Will S. managed to simply INVENT a fifth of what they just carried over.
Oh yeah, the French academy thing xD
What nobs.

@ Captain - is that from the Christmas special? A great moral message for us all.
Well, Roosevelt was the American Prezzie during WW2.
We've done the US Civil War and The Cold War, which makes America seem racist, violent, extremely paranoid and has very bad spies and crap assassins. They failed to kill Castro eight times. Lol.

XD I think it's silly, but I think it's a mark of some of the rough parts of Western society as a whole.
I learned about European History in AP European History (there's a shocker), and in my fourth year of French.

I actually don't have very wide ranging historical knowledge. Apart from us and US, in school we've hardly studied other countries history.
I'm familiar with some because of reading I've done myself. Mind you, it's mostly been the "Horrible History" series I read as a kid!

Oh geeze XD.
Yeah history sort of interests me except the whole wars and stuff thing... it's not a happy thing for me to hear about wars that started because of x and y and how we got the problems we have today 1000 years ago or something like that Dx.
