Jamesdom.

WOW! It was long and quite complex. About 35% of the words I was not able to understand. If I am not wrong, it is British english, which is very different from the American English, which I am used to. Nevertheless the language is beautiful and the word usage is splendid.

James' personality is very egocentric, he was condemned to be a king and since he was an infant he is so. Once he is assigned to be king of England his power rises a lot,along with his ego. England has always been a powerful country and in those times it was one of the most powerful. Today it occupays the 3rd place of the most expensive countries in the world. James is also judged when he sat in the throne. British people seem to be very arrogant. They give him a golden cup and treat him with luxury just to show off infront of him. Queen Elizabeth was also interested in the "good social class" of England's throne. This is why she kept on sending money for James. Probably James' character is so because he never had parents, as I undertood in the text his dad was never present or for some reason he was distant from James and his mother had died. The presence of parents, mark a difference in a person's values and morals.

I can't imagine what would it be to be a noble person in those times. It is absurd luxury and all the power is in your words and orders. Without a doubt I would hate to be part of that monarchy of hiprocrites and fake happiness. Freedom does not take place at any moment. I hate that kind of life. Since you have everything already, what is the essence of life? There is nothing more satisfactory than getting something that you won by yourself. Nobles simply are born rich and have everything figured out for ever. Boring, monotomous, and flavorless. I like the kind of life I carry, but I have to admit that I am very fortunate and many things in my life were figured out for me. I would like to experience what it is to be less priviledged and gain everything by myself.

Also, this is filled with spelling mistakes.
