Almanac of Absurdities 12/11

Heavy Royal Events Day: 1282, Death of “Llywelyn The Last”, the last Native Prince of Wales. 1792, King Louis XVI is tried for Treason. He goes to the Guillotine on January 21. 1936, King Edward VIII abdicates after 325 days on the throne in order to marry American Divorcee Wallis Simpson. He ended up being Governor of the Bahamas, with the woman he loved. Works for me.
