Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | When royalty speak on behalf of their office (at least in Western systems) they tend to use the Royal We or Pluralis Maiestatis. This was most famously used[1] by Queen "We are not amused" Victoria, who believed herself to be the avatar for the British Empire. This happens in fiction as well. A good way to show when the monarch in question has had enough and demands obedience is to have them switch to this form of address. Another way is to use this comedically, have a monarch use this in informal contexts or have people confuse the majestic plural for the regular one. ("Where are the rest of them?") |
