Not just their children. Lots of prominent Russians + Soviets have left to go to Europe, Israel, and the US.

hmm I would say the 17th century or so? didn't need knights anymore so younger sons came to the colonies- that is why there are so many ppl who can trace their families back to King James. it was a really big trend- also why there are more southerners who were all our family is important and marrying their cousins etc.. the crown colonies of VA and Georgia, the Carolinas were peopled with lesser royalty/nobility as opposed to the New England and mid Atlantic states that were founded by people fleeing religious persecution. we learned all this in like fifth grade in MCPS.. and then again in 8th grade US history and then AP us history..no need of in-depth college history classes.

ppl who have unusual life stories like to choose the United States to start a new life, including defunct royalty from all over. Tons of Greek and Austro-hungarian royalty and nobility, all the Persian royals, Ethiopian land owners who got driven out..

One of our neighbors in Alexandria is a Baron from England. We only learned this when Downton Abbey was on and his wife mentioned it at a book club meeting when we were talking about Downton. It entitled them to get married in St. Paul's Cathedral, but they got married in her hometown parish in the states. She said he just has to sign some papers occasionally to keep the family place where his parents live in some registry because the land has been leased to local farmers.

WE are not impressed as the rank of baron is the lowest in peerage and easily the most populated. There are currently 426 hereditary barons and lords of Parliament (not including courtesy baronies and lordships), and nine hereditary baronesses and ladies of Parliament in their own right. baron is the lowest

Why not? He was never prosecuted whereas Harry has admitted that he took drugs.

King Charles wants to slim down working royals, fine but keep the royal dregs in the United Kingdom!

Considering we were the original dumping ground for their less desirables (well, us and ‘Stralia), this is keeping a fine tradition

Pommies we're never sent here only to Australia.

No. They keep to themselves.

We fought a war to get rid of royalty. If they want to.live here then they need renounce all royal titles.

And the deposed Greek monarchy. The Crown Prince, his wife and 5 children live in NY.

Prince Joachim of Denmark is reportedly planning to move to Washington DC with his family later this year. There was a lot of drama when his mother the Queen stripped all his children of their HRH titles while his older brother’s kids kept theirs.

Are you kidding? We've always been a dumping ground for unwanted Europeans, esp. the English. Who do you think the Pilgrims were?

Lol you think royals need to qualify for visas!
