In light of the increasing number of spurious "royal experts" infiltrating the media, Princess Palace has created this online testing and training center/centre (a.k.a. trivia quizzes) to facilitate the recognition and certification of actual royal experts. Anyone receiving certification may add C.R.E. (certified royal expert) after one's name. This site is created and maintained entirely for fun. Its creator asserts no authority for certifying anyone's qualifications for anything. ;)

    There are several books called Queen Victoria's descendants -- so I think I can recuse myself from this.

    Thanks for answering Rhea! You were well on your way to a nearly perfect score. For some reason the final part of your answer did not come through.
