Why do you think Louis XIV believed he needed such a large and luxurious palace?
Well, the Palace of Versailles was built because the nobles were trying to overthrow the French monarchy, and in order to keep a close eye on them, Louis XIV built a beautiful palace, somewhat far from the city of Paris, for the nobles to live in with him. This prevented them from starting any uprisings. As for the rituals, the king's day was timed down to the last minute so that the officers in the service of the monarch could plan their work as accurately as possible. From the rising ceremony to the retiring, he followed a strict schedule, as did all the members of the Court, all regulated like clockwork. Hope this helps!
What year did the Queen go online with the first royal email message?
London Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II has sent her first royal thank-you by e-mail to 23 young people around the world to mark the 60th anniversary of the Commonwealth. The recipients all responded to a Buckingham Palace invitation to write an internet blog on the royal website about their typical day and their thoughts on the contemporary meaning of the Commonwealth, the alliance of 53 nations founded in 1949. Accounts came from as far afield as Belize, Papua New Guinea, Jamaica and the Solomon Islands, but also from large member states Canada and Australia. For 12-year-old Katrina Barber in Australia, the queen is the “boss” of the Commonwealth. Katrina, who lives on a remote cattle station 200 kilometres from Alice Springs, wants the queen to visit, so she can ask her what it’s like to swap a palace for the Australian bush. “I am heartened by your messages to see that the special spirit of the Commonwealth if alive and well among so many talented and enthusiastic young people,” the Queen said in her e-mail reply, headlined “A Message from Her Majesty the Queen” and signed “Elizabeth R.” The Queen, who sent her first e-mail in 1976 and posts her Christmas message on YouTube, uses e-mail regularly for private correspondence with family and friends — but never so far for an official thank-you and reply.

In which city can you see big ben and buckingham place?
Seriously? Doesn't just about everyone on Earth know that Buckingham Palace belongs to the Queen of England and is in England's capital city? And as for Big Ben...I think that it's probably the most famous landmark in the entire United Kingdom...and it's not far from Buckingham Palace. Big Ben is actually a connected to the Houses of Parliament on the bank of the Thames River, right next to Tower Bridge (the bridge in the nursery rhyme 'London Bridge is Falling Down') and the Tower of London. Fun place to go if you like history.
