7 REASON WHY THE DANISH ROYAL FAMILY IS BETTER THAT THE BRITISH ROYAL FAMILY
#Danmark #Denmark #RoyalFamily
After Prince Harry and Megan Markle's interview with Oprah, we started thinking that the world needs to focus on another royal family. When it comes to Denmark, royal family drama is almost non-existent. That’s the main reason why the Danish royal family is better than the British royal family. This video explains everything about Denmark’s royal family and why you should learn more about them instead of the Brits.
Derek explains how Queen Margrethe II of Denmark is one of the most highly educated and accomplished royals anywhere in the world. Her many talents will surprise you!
Mike discusses how athletics and sport are passions of the Danish royals. Crown Prince Frederik is super fit and organizes the Royal Run and Princess Nathalie of Denmark won a bronze medal in equestrian.
Derek discusses how the issue of a biracial princess and her kids was dealt with by the Danish Royal family decades ago (and much better than the British Royal Family). Just look at Prince Nikolai of Denmark and his brother, Prince Felix of Denmark.
Mike talks about the historic nature of Danish royalty being married or installed as royals around Europe like the Royal Families of Norway and Greece. Even Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh is a descendant of the Danish Royal Family.
Derek talks about Crown Princess Mary of Denmark and the role she plays in the family and country, her charity work, and her impact on Denmark. She’s also a commoner who married a Prince way before the British Royal Family started doing it (sorry Kate Middleton).
Mike talks about how much the Danish Royal family is a symbol of the nation and how it contrasts with the way the British Royal family is only a symbol of greed and tourism (if you ask most people). He also discusses how as Americans, we still feel some novelty living in a monarchy. King Christian X of Denmark became a national symbol and how during the crisis of 2020, Queen Margrethe II also played a role in keeping the nation unified.
Derek explains how, unlike the British Royal family, the Danish Royal Family is popular! This is backed up by polls and the Danish press covers Denmark’s royal family differently than the United Kingdom's Royal Family. We also discuss the importance of the Danish Queen’s New Year’s address.
