Any questions please ask and I’ll clarify.

  • Update 2025-11-30 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): For the answer option "Has an official royal title?": Having an official royal title is required. The Pope being considered a monarch does not automatically qualify unless he has an official royal title.

  • Update 2025-11-30 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): For the answer option "Has an official royal title?": The Pope does not count as having an official royal title, despite being considered a monarch or sovereign of Vatican City State.

  • Update 2025-11-30 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): For the answer option "Has an official royal title? (Anything Pope Related doesn't count)": Having an official royal title is required (e.g., "King of the Belgians", "Prince", "Princess"). This is not a blanket ban on Catholic royals - Catholic royals with official royal titles (like Philippe, King of the Belgians) would qualify. The Pope does not count as having an official royal title.

  • Update 2025-11-30 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): For the answer option "Leader of a country": The Pope counts as a leader of a country, as he appears in blue or green on the Wikipedia list of current heads of state and government specified in the description.

Let me know in the comments if you have suggestions for answers

Also, are you also excluding the Pope from Leader of a country despite him being on the wikipedia list specied in the description?

@JussiVilleHeiskanen Anyone listed in the colour blue or green on that list counts. So yes, he counts as the leader of a country

@JussiVilleHeiskanen Does he have an official royal title?

bought Ṁ12 NO

@Jack0 Sovereign of the Vatican City State (no sniggering now): Superanus sui iuris civitatis Vaticanae

@JussiVilleHeiskanen I sent you 50 to compensate for the confusion. But the pope isn’t going to count as having a royal title

@Jack0 Anything related to the Pope not qualifying, would that include Belgian Royals who are catholic, is this a blanket ban of Catholic royals?

@JussiVilleHeiskanen No. Philippe has an official royal title, King of the Belgians. His children are prince and princesses. It’s not a blanket ban. You just need to have a royal title to count
