They are one of the last true monarchies here on earth. They still rule with a word and with a wave of their hand, no different than they did centuries ago.

What do you call a person who has no life other than what the prince or princess gives them as their daily morsel. What do you call a man who does not sleep but maybe three hours a night waiting by the phone for orders or instructions for twelve years on end? Shall I tell those who ask that the work almost killed me several times over? Shall I tell them that I was indeed a slave who lost his wife because of years of neglecting her and who did not get to see his own children grow up?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eShall I tell them of the deceit, lies, and backstabbing which were the normal part of my everyday existence.
