prepare to shift your paradigm then. It's anachronistic because there hasn't been a King for such a long time due to QEII's epic reign so it's not part of our vocabulary, but nevertheless, Britain is getting Kings in the 21st Century, because Charles will likely be followed by William and then Louis. Might be the 22nd century before we get a Queen again!

assuming the institution last that long.

Not just QEII - Elizabeth was the longest reigning British monarch, but that record was previously held by Victoria. So the last 185 years were book-ended by two epic Queens, with a few short Kings between them.

I mean obviously Queen feels more normalized because there's only been a King for 0.002% of my life. But I do think Kings being the minority for the last two centuries adds its own impact too.

No, Princess Charlotte - William's second child - will get the throne before Louis.

Although, should George have children when he comes of age (which he most certainly will), they would be before Charlotte and Louis.
