They're not obsolete at all. They have their purposes.
—They're the real shadow cabinet. When the democracy experiment fails (well, maybe it won't but it always did in history) there is a fallback structure in place, one that worked for centuries and works now in many countries. It is just common sense to have it.
—They are a tourist and investor magnet. Rich people and aristocracy, especially from feudal states are drawn to Royalty.
Contrary to what most people think, they're mostly self-sufficient. They own loads of profitable land, real estate and other investments (e.g. www.duchyoriginals.com ).
They get some sort allowance from the budget, ie. representation fund but it pays off in the grand scheme of things.- The End.tangoxray3
