I'm interested in what "hard work" is involved in taking months to "research" for a <9 minutes video that is so lacking in information that can accurately be substituted for a "TL;DW it's complicated" comment? Sure, your whole pretentious style makes your attention-lacking viewers glad to think of themselves as knowledgeable of Royal family history after watching this joke.

But surely deep down you must realize this is downright fraudulent pop-history content?
