Luxemburg

Enjoy the views of Luxemburg, the capital of Luxenburg.


The current Grand Duke, Henri, bears the full style "His Royal Highness by the Grace of God, Grand Duke of Luxembourg, Duke of Nassau, Count Palatine of the Rhine, Count of Sayn, Königstein, Katzenelnbogen and Diez, Burgrave of Hammerstein, Lord of Mahlberg, Wiesbaden, Idstein, Merenberg, Limburg and Eppstein." -Thank you Wikipedia
I still dont fully understand how they can have a duke instead of a king or queen. Whats the point? (Then again, I dont understand having a king or queen either.)

What lovely views of Luxembourg. I used the photos and your heading "scenery" to teach the vocab word "scene".
