Hello

My request: A video on Queen Elizabeth II's brooches. She has so many jewels you can get a vast number of videos from them, and I'll happily watch them all, but her brooches seem to be where she most expresses herself, and expresses what she's trying to convey with every outfit. I'd love a video on their history and meaning.

@myriamickx7969

So do I. An explanation of where they come from, who gave which to the queen, and when/where she wore them on specific occasions, intending which message exactly. For instance I learned today that the Queen wore a brooch given by the Obamas, during Trump’s state visit. I would love to see the brooch, as I didn't know the anecdote at the time. Those jewels have still so much to teach us!

@@Edmonton-of2ec He banned theatre, Christmas, & enacted an unusually bloody war against the Irish. I'm not unaware of the man's flaws. But you can't compare him to the current queen, b/c Cromwell had the task of actually *ruling* a government, not just sitting on a gilded chair & cut ribbons. He's bound to screw up more often & said screw ups are going to have larger consequences. And despite his other flaws, he appears to have genuinely been against the institution of monarchy: despite the common image of him eagerly positioning his son as successor, it appears Cromwell spent many, *many* years without naming a successor despite strong pressure to do so. He only named his son Richard as heir near the very end of his life at a point when that pressure was the strongest. One would expect that, if he truly expected to be succeeded by his son in the monarchical fashion, he would associate his son in government early on as the kings did. Cromwell did not do this, & Richard Cromwell was only positioned to succeed when Cromwell was practically on his deathbed. Was this the mark of an ad-hoc military junta rather than an actual republic (or even a functioning government)? Yeah, pretty much. But considering that when the royals ruled things operated at nearly-equal level of disfunction, I have to give Cromwell some credit for his heart being in the right place at least some of the time.

Just one kinki bit of correction it wasn't sher singh but Ranjit Singh who got the kohinoor later his first son was poisoned after few months of the assention of the throne his successor the grand son of Ranjit Singh was crushed by a rock after that Ranjit Singh's daughter in law took the throne but was murdered by suffocating then Ranjit Singh's second son who was sher singh took the throne but was shot killed and his heir's head was put on a spear then Duleep singh took the throne with his mother acting as the regent but all was lost after the Sikh defeat in the Anglo Sikh war hence all these tragedies among the old ones became a base for solidifying the rumours of the curse on kohinoor great video by the way
