| “Queen Elizabeth II the largest landowner on Earth.” Queen Elizabeth II, head of state of the United Kingdom and of 31 other states and territories, is the legal owner of about 6,600 million acres of land, one sixth of the earth’s non ocean surface. She is the only person on earth who owns whole countries, and who owns countries that are not her own domestic territory. This land ownership is separate from her role as head of state and is different from other monarchies where no such claim is made – Norway, Belgium, Denmark etc. The value of her land holding. £17,600,000,000,000 (approx). This makes her the richest individual on earth. However, there is no way easily to value her real estate. There is no current market in the land of entire countries. At a rough estimate of $5,000 an acre, and based on the sale of Alaska to the USA by the Tsar, and of Louisiana to the USA by France, the Queen’s land holding is worth a notional $33,000,000,000,000 (Thirty three trillion dollars or about £17,600,000,000,000). Her holding is based on the laws of the countries she owns and her land title is valid in all the countries she owns. Her main holdings are Canada, the 2nd largest country on earth, with 2,467 million acres, Australia, the 7th largest country on earth with 1,900 million acres, the Papua New Guinea with114 million acres, New Zealand with 66 million acres and the UK with 60 million acres. She is the world’s largest landowner by a significant margin. The next largest landowner is the Russian state, with an overall ownership of 4,219 million acres, and a direct ownership comparable with the Queen’s land holding of 2,447 million acres. The 3rd largest landowner is the Chinese state, which claims all of Chinese land, about 2,365 million acres. The 4th largest landowner on earth is the Federal Government of the United States, which owns about one third of the land of the USA, 760 million acres. The fifth largest landowner on earth is the King of Saudi Arabia with 553 million acres Largest five personal landowners on Earh Queen Elizabeth II 6,600 million acres King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia 553 million acres King Bhumibol of Thailand 126 million acres King Mohammed IV of Morocco 113 million acres Sultan Quaboos of Oman 76 million acres |

| Would not swap my life, nor my back and front garden, both now a jungle, for all the Royals properties and money, along with the life they have to lead.
All the properties are run in a proper manner and involve employment for many people.
Just who do you think would end up with all the assets they presently run if they were to be deprived of them?.
The Royals have helped to keep our country more stable and democratic for many years as opposed to any other country, and it is elected idiots who are presently in the process of ruining it and not the Royals, and elected idiots or a dictator is the alternative.
Regards.

| Careful Knackered... your neighbours will beat you to them.
A wealthy friend, a good businessman with fingers in many pies, used to buy an acre at 5/- v(25p) and bought them weekly spending a £1000 a time. Feel - if I remember right a little back from the sea. Said he, and his children won't benefit at al... maybe great grandchildren will start to … BUT somewhere down the line some somewhere will start raking in a fortune. |

| There are far more happy humans with just a reasonable income than the drug and evil ridden majority of those with mass fortunes, just read the news every day and see what money can do.
We know there are those who should have a better life and everything should be done to assist the genuine ones but money does not buy happiness in many instances.
Just as in our sport the moaners do nothing but moan.
Regards.
