The World's Richest Monarchs and Royals - 2024

Below is a list of the World's Richest Monarchs in order of wealth, the figures are calculated
based upon their present assets as Sovereigns of the Realm, whereas it should be noted that most
studies upon this subject past and present by magazines, books and by the media, listing figures
attributed to the so-called true wealth of the Monarchs in question are misleading. Those
compiling these false figures, in most circumstances source their information from a small
collection of individuals, who do not and in some cases choose not to understand the complicated
asset wealth of a Monarch, through their vast Hereditary and Sovereign wealth therein. As such
readers and viewers of such articals, should take special note that any listing, which lists His
Majesty King Charles III of the United Kingdom of Great Britain, below first place upon
the list in question, should not be read any further as their figures are not correct.

Whereas, most figures on this subject concerning the wealth of Monarchs and Royals, seem to be
complied by a certain American based Magazine with its online service, the ridiculous figures that
are complied by this well known American Magazine are in most part misleading, and lack any
credible status when concerning the true wealth of the Monarchs and Royals concerned. One
example amongst many others, which is utterly contradictory on the part of the Magazine, is that
of the listing of the King of Thailand who according to their figures, holds first place on the list.
The King does indeed owns vast land holdings in the Capital of Bangkok, which is run by the Thai
Crown Agency, in the exact way the King of Great Britain owns vast land holdings in the UK run
by the British Crown Estate, except the Magazine in question states that the King does not own the
land, but for some unknown reason the King of Thailand does. Yet the Magazine shows no legal or
factual proof to substantiate their false assumption, only that it is considered by modern assumption
and public opinion that the King does not own the Crown Estate. The King of Great Britain is the
wealthiest Monarch in the World by far, this is not an outdated notion or passe, it is fact, if one chooses
to not recognize this fact one can only be considered as ignorant in its absolute meaning.

Therefore, the Almanach challenges any person or Media body to show proof by submitting any
British Law under Act of Parliament stating clearly, that the King does own the Crown Estate.
Whereas there are tens of thousands of documents and many hundreds of Laws under Act of
Parliament, which state that the Crown Estate is part of the Sovereign patrimony of the British
Monarch, and therefore is in fact the legal property of the Reigning Monarch concerned. It
should be noted that ownership can never be based upon a mere assumption, but must be backed
up by legal standing and judgement. Whereas, another example is the so-called listed Wealth of
the ex-Queen of the Netherlands, who according to their figures is worth a mere $200 Million
dollars, whereas the Dutch Royal Family to which she was head of until recently, is the worlds
largest share holder of the Royal Dutch Shell Oil Company being a 25% holder, therefore her
true wealth was in the Billions of dollars, another example of the Magazines silly figures
which have no connection with the true figures of Monarchs listed.

The American Magazine in question, seems to compile its figures when concerning Monarchs and
Royals of the World, in the same way as it complies figures for International Film Stars, Rock
Groups and of course Mickey Mouse, which shows the Magazine in question to have very little
or no understanding to the complicated subject of the asset wealth of the Worlds Monarchs and
Royals, who in some cases have amassed their family wealth, property and ownership rights over
many centuries, and in the case of the King of Great Britain near on a millennium, so the true
and total wealth of the aforementioned Monarchs and Royals may never be known. As a further
note of interest, if the Russian Revolution of 1917 had never happened, and the Imperial House of
Romanov were still Monarchs of Russia, the Tsar of Russia would be the wealthiest Monarch on
Earth, followed by King Charles III of Great Britain, then by the Emperor of Austria-Hungary.

Age: 73

Net worth: £ 60 Billion - Plus

Charles III ( Charles Philip Arthur George born 14th November 1948) is, and has been from his accession in 2022, King of the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, and Head of the Commonwealth.
