Before we get onto today's quiz, we want to say that if you have loved ones or friends in London, that we hope they're safe, and if you've had cause to be worried over the last twenty-four hours, we hope that's past.
On to a completely coincidentally U.K.-related quiz question.
Queen Elizabeth II of England has a distant cousin who happens to be the political leader of another nation (although this is going to change soon). What country is it? Bonus point: what was his title from the ages of 6 to 9? Bonus bonus point: who was his father eating with just before (the father) died suspiciously?
First correct answer posted to comments wins a whole box of burnt-out flourescent light bulbs, perfect for hurling into the dumpster out back, javelin-style, where they make satisfying explosions. No Googling or leafing through Burke's Peerage. One guess per comment, please, but comment as often as you like.
