It's about sending a message

Haven't you read the propaganda? The buildings they've built over the years with your ancestor's money attract a lot of tourists.

I mean, they more than pay for themselves. But otherwise, it's a state visit. If you're sending ambassadors, you generally pay for it.
>these people have zero political legitimacy.
Except for being the royal family, you mean?

They do not hold a political office. As far as I understand the Queen holds a political office, not the third in line of royal succession.

Still going to be William's country one day. Doesn't need to be some (((elected))) office to have a be a governmental one. Just like other ambassadors.

ambassadors hold an official office, those royals do not. This has nothing to do with elections.

They do, though. Inherited, rather than appointed.

Its about diplomacy not whether they are meant to be able to broker deals while they visit. Its a step below a state visit from the political leader but a step above of meeting with diplomats of the said country.
