Royals everywhere

Australia is a monarchy. The head of state has been a queen for 66 years, none other than Elizabeth II. Nevertheless, the Australians seem to prefer kings, who you will encounter here every day, everywhere. For each profession there seems to be a king of his own.

Even though customers are supposed to be king, it is often the businesses who advertise with their royal title. Apparently it seems to boost the business if you can shop at the king’s. Or the service providers are the happiest people ever, according to the motto of the German composer August Mühling: “To be happy, it takes little, and who is happy, is a king.
