      (Sad we had no longer King and Queen of France. But the Houses of Bourbons, Orleans and Bonapartistes are actually alive but remain low key
      There's still a mob of people who wants the Return of the French Monarchy. Far long gone (It was more than 200 years ago)

    9:47 Traditional East Asian color theory uses four colors being roughly red, blue, white, and black. These colors hold their own significance in a lot of different areas, like art, philosophy, etc. When it comes to countries though, Vietnam is called the blue dragon country, China is called the red dragon country, Korea is the white dragon country, and Japan is the black dragon country. These four countries together symbolize the four East Asian dragons
