1689 – William III and Mary II are crowned as joint sovereigns of Great Britain. Was Britain just plain short on names back in those days, or what?
If I get crowned and sing all night long it's a family tradition.
In British history there have only been a handful of families to occupy the throne, I guess the rest shit in the woods. The crown would be handed down in the family until somebody kicked their ass out. The family in charge would choose a name that let people know which family to suck up to.
