the Dutch East Indies

The island is politically divided among three countries: Malaysia and Brunei in the north, and Indonesia to the south. It is the only island in the world to be politically administered by three countries at a time. Approximately 73% of the island is Indonesian territory….Borneo.

Borneo is the third largest island on Earth and the largest in Asia. The island is located east of Sumatra, North of Java and west of Sulawesi in Asia. Borneo is not classified as a country as it is governed by three separate sovereign political powers. The countries are Indonesia, Brunei and Malaysia.

Borneo is one of the most biodiverse places on the planet, being home to an estimated 15,000 different plant species. Borneo is home to the Rafflesia Arnoldii flower; the largest flower in the world. Said flower is also known as the corpse flower as it is said to smell like rotting corpes.

The only state entirely on Borneo is the Sultanate of Brunei. Despite it covering only 1 percent of the island, it is a very wealthy state thanks to its natural resources.

It may surprise you to know that while the queen is the richest member of the royal family, she isn’t a billionaire. In 2019, Forbes had assessed the Queen’s net worth as equal to least $500 million USD.

The Royal family recently published its annual books of accounts for the year 2020-21, providing a fascinating insight into the regal life of the English royalty. The net worth of Queen Elizabeth II is $600 million, as per Celebrity Net Worth.

Harry didn’t reveal the sum during his chat with Oprah, but the Sun understands Harry was left $11 million when his mother died 23 years ago.

Harry is still worth millions. Harry and Meghan’s estimated joint worth is $10 million, as Forbes reported. Back in May 2019, Harry was estimated to be worth between $25 million and $40 million—about the same as Prince William given their similar sources of income at the time, according to Money.

Unlike William’s parents and grandparents, he and Kate reportedly sleep in the same bed together — most of the time, anyway. A descendant of the company’s founder noted, “It’s an unusual order because the bed is bespoke and had to be enshrined in a four-poster setting.”

Why do the royals sleep in separate beds? Reportedly, the reason why some royals chose to sleep in different beds all comes down to an upper-class tradition which originated in Britain. She said: “In England, the upper class always have had separate bedrooms.”

Even though Diana was known as ‘Princess Diana’, Kate is not a princess just because she married Prince William. To become a Princess, one has to be born into the Royal Family such as Prince William and Kate’s daughter, Princess Charlotte, or the Queen’s daughter, Princess Anne.

So, none of us can deny the fact that Prince William and Kate Middleton are madly in love. Not in a PDA obvious way, but in a real, true love kind of way. “When William asked Kate to marry him, he made it very clear that she wouldn’t have to leave her family behind her once she married into his family.”

Prince William “cannot tolerate” Meghan Markle after her treatment of Kate Middleton, according to reports. The Duke of Cambridge is said to have felt “protective” of the Duchess of Cambridge in the wake of the explosive Oprah Winfrey interview.

No. She isn’t jealous. Most likely she is disgusted with Meghan’s antics and their backstabbing. Kate obviously sees Meghan for what she really is.

When Prince William inevitably becomes King, however, Kate’s title will also change. Kate has no royal blood, so will be Queen consort. This means that Kate will also actually be crowned, just in a smaller ceremony when compared to William’s.

Royal expert and biographer Robert Jobson is of the belief that Her Majesty, who will turn 95 in a few days, will “never abdicate” while her son Prince Charles, who is next in line will become “quasi-king.” “I thought she looked frail at that stage,” Jobson said, but added: “She’ll never, ever, abdicate the throne.”

Kate did actually have the ring adjusted once it was her engagement ring, because it was too big for her finger. So, as it transpires, Meghan Markle could have been the lucky lady to wear Princess Diana’s iconic band – but it wasn’t meant to be.

Following several years of intense speculation from the British media about the couple’s marriage plans—during which time Kate was dubbed “Waity Katie”—it was announced in November 2010 that the two had become engaged. In preparation for entry into the royal family, Kate reverted to the more-formal name Catherine.
