HCBailly, i just checked your channel and you have 9,485 subscribers. What suprise are you going to do once you hit 10,000? Cause with your growing popularity, it might happen this year!

[HCBailly]

More likely, I'll do something when I hit 1000 videos, which will probably be at about the same time. Ironically, I just hit 1,000,000 views too.

Dividing the lands among the sons was common at one point. Charlemagne's empire was split into three parts when his son died, essentially forming what we know today as France and Germany as separate entities.

In Figaro's case, it makes even less sense because there's only one caste. What, Edgar gets Figaro Castle and Sabin gets South Figaro?

Even is Sabin hadn't inherited the throne, he'd still be well off as a Prince, likely titled as a Duke as well. No need to be a drama queen and run away.

[HCBailly]

I was thinking about that today. Although they never even infer it, might Kohlingen and Jidoor be part of the Figaro kingdom, since they're practically right next to it when it's on that side of the mountains? Maybe they would divide it that.

"To my youngest son Sabin, you get the eastern half of the kingdom: the one with the crappy equipment shops."

it's easy, and was relatively common historically for rulers who controlled huge domains to give a partial inheritance to more than one heir, if they thought a single one wouldn't be able to handle the load. This was traditional in many cultures.

It was also possible to have two rulers. The most important example is the Roman empire, where sometimes up to four monarchs ruled different parts with roughly equal status before Constantine's division became "complete" after lasting generations.

Whenever I see the coin toss scene, I always think one thing... What would Edgar have done if, after having tosses that coin so damn high into the air, he fumbled the catch and it went into the desert? I kinda doubt he has another one of that coin just lying around.

Sparta had 2 Kings, but those where still different families.

Splitting power, one lifts the sun, the other lifts the moon.

....the fuck? 

[LinkMarioSamus]

@HCBailly Well, at least it allowed the awesome irony that Edgar (a king who likes flirting and is a machine nut in combat) and Sabin (a monk) are twin brothers!

[SSJ4Vegeta1986]

HC that is the name for bigfoot.

It may not be good to be king, but it just feels great. 10 respect points for getting the reference

[imshinycaptain]

Splitting power happened. The Roman empire was eventually split into an East and West empire, and each had two co-emperors. Of course, this was one of the things that eventually led to their downfall...

Of course you don't like seafood; you live in Chicago, there's no ocean for thousands of miles. God only knows what you're getting out there.
