royal families should no longer exist just does not seem right. I strongly believe that abolishing monarchy will cause more problems than it solves. The biggest impact will be the major fall in truism. Nearly everyone I know who have been to England have gone there to visit some part of the monarchy related attractions. Secondly, to my mind, monarchy is a symbol of military and political power. To this very day there are countries whose flags are market with Great Britain's flag. The most notorious of those is of course Australia. From the economical point of view monarchy in Britain is not so great. They do bring in more than they spend but the costs to keep up with the needs of the mansions, summerhouses, traveling come from the people. But the income does not go to the common wealth. Only the few businessmen profit from the lives of the Royal Family. The British Empire did conquer many places but they did not do it just to help the people

National symbols The Flag of Scotland, known as the Saltire or St. Andrew's Cross, dates (at least in legend) from the 9th century, and is thus the oldest national flag still in use.

Olulistest USA scene'idest võib välja tuua California scene, mis sünnitas hardcore punk'i. Suunda näitasid ansamblid Black Flag, Circle Jerks ning Dead Kennedys.
