The Crown
or
Crown Land

There is no equivalent notion in the United States, most of Canada is Crown Land.
The term "crown" plays an active part in the life of most Canadians.
We have a Royal Police Force, when we break laws we are prosecuted by Crown attorneys.
The Crown interest is represented by both Federal and Provincial governments.
Not everyone is Canada is happy with this.
The only reason that any of this is relevant is that this incident is the "news" in regards to King Charles III.
He really isn't that visible at this point in time and his character as King has no definition.
Queen Camilla is not making any waves here either, I do hear it said that "She isn't a real Queen".
As the longest serving Prince of Wales in history Charles was always very forward looking.
His commitment to the future was, and still is, obvious in initiatives like PTC

Society sorts us out in ways that are above all random, it seems like Charles has been lucky.
But there really is no life that does not have appropriately sized problems.
Being King Charles III gets you a place in Wikipedia, or whatever replaces Wikipedia in the future.
We dwell within a world where all privilege is in a state of flux and has been for a long time.
King Charles is smart and maybe he understands this and envies our simpler lives.
We live in an exciting point in time, there is so much to know and nothing better than knowing.
