Answer:
Buckingham Palace's use of the royal easel rather than Twitter to announce the new prince's birth, the pomp of Sunday's swearing in of Belgium's King Philippe — complete with bearskin-bedecked cavalry and 101-gun salutes — and Spanish King Juan Carlos's unpopular elephant-shooting spree in Botswana all look quaintly anachronistic in the 21st century.
"Expensive, unaccountable and a drag on our democratic process, the monarchy is a broken institution," declares the campaign group Republic, which claims to represent up to 12 million Brits who want to dump their monarchy.
However, the world's kings, queens, emperors, emirs, grand dukes, princes and sultans have some thoroughly hard-edged modern statistics on their side, suggesting a global shout of "vive la republique" might be premature.
