Yes. Hollywood is shit at realizing what royal marriage was about. Marriage doesn't require love. Just ask Al Bundy.

Any time now, Lyra. Any time. Watch your car keys.
And your weed stash.
And your bedroom door. Chances are, he'll rape you first, the Genocidal Bastard.

So if you had a choice to be happy with a spouse and bring peace to the kingdoms, or to be miserable with someone and bring peace to the kingdoms, you'd be with someone you hated?

Just ask anyone who had to go through an arranged marriage. Lust helps, but if you're willing to compromise and be civil, there's really no reason why a marriage won't work out... even if it means living almost separate lives.Nazis in Space wrote:Keeping in mind that 'Hollywoods' idealised noble romances have been a part of oral traditions or written works for several thousand years, I find it a little unfair to lay the blame on Hollywood, tbh.
I'm not laying all the blame on Hollywood, but most people tend to get their ideas from Hollywood movies. *shrugs*

True, though they've taken things a little bit to the extreme end in modern times.

It wouldn't have mattered anyways. You had to do it; there really wasn't much of a choice in the matter.

You're royalty. You have a great life no matter who you are with, assuming the peasants don't revolt and behead you.

A proper Czarina has her rotten husband assassinated and then fucks every decent-looking man of her guard.
