	Royal family - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A royal family is the extended family of a monarch.
		The term "imperial family" more appropriately describes the extended family of an emperor or empress regnant, while the terms "ducal family" or "princely family" are more appropriate in reference to the relatives of a reigning duke, grand duke, or prince.
		A royal family typically includes the spouse of the reigning monarch, any or all surviving spouses of a deceased monarch, the children, grandchildren, brothers, sisters, and cousins of the reigning monarch, as well as their spouses.

	LONDON TOWN - British Monarchy - The Royal Family
		The Royal Family are in danger of bankrupting their residual value as figureheads (including of the Church) because their image has been so sullied.
		Since the Royal family has been in frequent crisis from at least the Wars of the Roses (and please note that it was frequently and extremely unpopular prior to the mid nineteenth century) we have had to borrow other people's royal families.
		The Royals themselves are trying to take an early monopoly on this undeveloped middle ground between monarchism and republicanism: the so-called Way Ahead group: I've always thought that the royals must look to other nobility and media-nobility and wondered why they can't just enjoy their money and stuff the endless official engagements.
