I must say, and this is just my own personal taste, I do prefer the Gothic architecture in churches and cathedrals to the Italianate (neo classical), even though St Paul's in London is magnificent.
Christian III (who, somewhat surprisingly was educated as a Lutheran) changed the religion of the country and after 1536 the DRF joined many of their poorer subjects and became Lutherans. They haven't changed since.

The Politics of Monarchies & Republics / Re: The Commonwealth Nations a...
Last post by Curryong - Today at 03:28:51 AMUp early today for the Dawn Service at our local memorial. Don't go to the city one any more. Anzac Day is still important here. Thousands have lined the streets to see the marches today, young and old, all ethnicities looking on. It's mostly our Vietnam vets marching nowadays, (those that can still do it) and ex Peace Keeping forces from different conflicts. Friends went to see the Commonwealth Graves from WW1 last year. Still heartbreaking I expect. I saw them as a schoolgirl in France and Belgium but not at Gallipoli.

Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie of York / Re: Princess Beatrice, Eduardo...
Last post by Curryong - Today at 03:20:05 AMQuote from: Blue Clover on Today at 02:21:33 AMHow sad.
I remember that courtship, and his criminal record. What on earth did Beatrice see in him? She was so heartbroken when he had to return to the US.
