Kinda wish the billionaires of the world would at least bring back crowns. Like the cosplay aspect was one of the few fun parts.
At least King Charles is rocking the Star Wars villain look.

New life goal acquired. Become a billionaire. Construct an absurdly lavish crown of solid gold and precious jewels - so lavish, in fact, that it makes the holy crown of the Roman Empire look as though it's a paper crown from Burger King (home of the flame-broiled beesechussy). Wear this crown everywhere, every single day, in every public appearance. Set 1 billion aside to maintain your billionaire status, and live only off the interest to afford your Burger King sandwiches. Spend the remainder of your income (billions of it) on charities and other humanitarian causes. Contribute toward paying down or paying off entirely the debts of the poor and the working class. Buy Smuckers just to ensure that their jam continues being delicious and that the capitalists don't fuck it up like they did Cadbury. Continue to act as a beacon of hope and good-will, but never stop wearing that crown until the day you die.
Look at me. I'm the emperor now!
I understand the war, the pain, the stress and all. But you don't handle an ancient object like that... You should feel the importance of the thing for all the human people, as an extraordinary artifact... Average extra ignorant USer, moreover a soldier one... Bleah
Bloody royalists
His .45 is in a tanker holster, so I'm guessing that was his job.
Wearing crowns?
Glorious purpose.
That or a Monuments Man.
Look at me. I'm the pope now
The crown of the Holy Roman Empire was not for the pope but for the emperor. The name might be confusing but it’s basically the predecessor of Germany.
Listen Leeroy, I’ve been killing Nazis for 3 months now. How about instead of fact checking my joke you put your big city learning to good use and tell me which of them paintings over there is valuable.
Believe it or not, entirely edible.
Does it still exist? When was it made? Very interesting.

It still exists and was made about a thousand years ago
We thought Mussolini died to the mob this whole time, but no
he died of envy.
Now that's one way to wake up Heinrich and his legion of undead
Rich people do the weirdest shit. Why would anyone want to wear that?
They didn't have Bentleys and Private Jets yet.
At least luxury cars are comfortable and fun to drive. This thing just looks uncomfortable and ugly with no utility.
I mean I sorta get it. Anyone wearing it is conveying that they can't do anything practical or even tend to their own needs. Which means they have the resources that free them from it. Induced weakness to display strength.
Point is it still looks uncomfortable.
Display of wealth and power seems to be the obvious answer
People and hats.
As Team Fortress 2 proves
Why is he sideways?
Where's that crown now?
According to Wikipedia, after the Nazis were defeated in Europe, the crown jewels were returned to Vienna by U.S. forces where they are still on display today in the Imperial Treasury.
