The question is: why wouldn't they want us to know this?
Descending from Caesar sounds a lot better than descending from a bunch of Germans.
The House of Windsor is the royal house of the Commonwealth realms. It was founded by King George V by royal proclamation on the 17 July 1917, when he changed the name of his family from the German Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to the English Windsor, due to the anti-German sentiment in the United Kingdom during World War I.

That's why they are "freemen" and have protections to their rights and we
are "serfs" and lack many of these protections. It's written right there.
Just look around that website some and you will be perplexed and blown away
as I was probably.

Meh... It's probably nothing, right?
Great work on this thread. A well-composed summary of one of the funnest nights in my recent history.

They keep changing their name so that the rabble (us) doesn't get alarmed and take them out of power.
The English geneticist Professor Stephen Jones estimates that 25% of the British population is descended from the Plantagenets.
The House of Plantagenet, a branch of the Angevins, was a royal house founded by Geoffrey V of Anjou, father of Henry II of England. Plantagenet kings first ruled the Kingdom of England in the 12th century. Their paternal ancestors originated in the French province of Gâtinais and gained the County of Anjou through marriage during the 11th century. The dynasty accumulated several other holdings, building the Angevin Empire that at its peak stretched from the Pyrenees to Ireland and the border with Scotland.
Whenever a reliable family tree was available, almost anyone of European ancestry turned out to be descended from English royalty—even such unlikely people as Hermann Göring and Daniel Boone. Humphrys began to think that such descent was the rule rather than the exception in the Western world, even if relatively few people had the documents to demonstrate it.

My question is why haven't I ever heard anyone tell me about this
before? I have been researching conspiracies, history, and all things weird
for a very long time, and never heard about this in a direct specific
manner.
