Currently, all of Europe’s monarchies are led by men, a rare occurrence that has not been seen since Empress Anna of Russia took the throne in 1730. However, this all-male line could soon change as many of these reigning men will eventually pass their crowns to their daughters or granddaughters, paving the way for future queens.

Sounds that are soothing, sweet-sounding. For example, ‘Her voice was as dulcet as a lullaby.’ Pronounced as DUL-SET.

Quote of the day
