When I ask a Brit why do Britain need a ceremonial Queen he say to me "for staying Britain". What did he mean by this?
It means that the monarchy is the center of all things British and has been for hundreds of years.
In my opinion, they're just a glorified benefits family.

benefits family?
Because Britain, like Belgium and Spain, are not real countries and are only united by their monarchy.
The difference is that Britain and Spain are just one big country (England and Castillia) ruling over a bunch of smaller ones, while Belgium is just two rogue regions from France and Netherlands.

Anglo-Saxon are a Germanic people so the Queen is of German heritage, but so is the British people (except Welsh).

They do though, at least in theory.
I mean they literally own the government ffs, and the Queen is sovereign and ultimate lawmaker.

It's not true. The royal family owns many lands, but not all of the country. Not even close.

>I'm going to tell you about how the government works in your own country
They don't won the country. They do fuck all.

Revenues from private land forfeited to the government exceeds allowances. The government would be worse off if the queen wasn't the head of state
