Which Reminds Me

Yes, I find it very difficult to comprehend why anyone in America would be pondering the alleged ongoing feud of Bonaparte vs. Beauhamais. I am so not into European politics, and skimming Wikipedia I learn basically that Louis preferred to fight and die in the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879, thus dashing to pieces their best dynastic hope of the time, to be crowned Napoleon IV. This is not a thought that had troubled my thoughts at all. Kings often rise and fall in this world. There are no guarantees that you are going to get another chance to seize the French throne. And here I am thinking that the Bourbons were the French kings, but yes I imagine there are many pretenders out there jostling for position, even if nobody was asking that question.
