Summary
King Felipe VI of Spain faced a hostile crowd in Valencia, where unprecedented floods have devastated communities, leaving over 200 dead and many missing. Footage shows protesters shouting “murderer” and “shame” at the king, with some throwing objects and mud as he walked through the affected area of Paiporta.
There is also a King of Denmark, England, Norway, Sweden, Belgium and a King of the Netherlands. But most monarchies are constitutional so they hold no political power.
Technically, Spain’s king holds some power. He is the highest military authority (he holds the title of General Captain of the whole army) and he has to sign any law before it can core to effect. If he doesn’t sign it, the law won’t pass. Although it’s more of a formal fignature, he could not allow a law to pass if he wanted.
Same in Norway.
The monarchies can stay on one condition. They all wear silly hats like the Swedish king
I don’t know, popes are kings and they can wear pretty silly hats.
Do we have to keep popes around?
I should have clarified. I mean silly (fun) not silly (ridiculous)
Not silly enough. Either sew bunny ears on it or else the pope has to go too.
Fair.
This is the silliness that is desired. Our heir apparent have yet to take up her father’s penchant for silly hats. One day I hope.
The British monarch does hold political power, but usually does not do anything with it.

Hence “most”.
