Queen Elizabeth Germany Visit, Waterloo Coin Controversy
Queen Elizabeth II visited Germany and met with Chancellor Angela Merkel, stressing the need for European unity. The hosts mock the ceremonial nature of the monarchy and the "baubles" worn by the Queen. They also mention a diplomatic spat where Belgium minted a euro coin commemorating the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo, which offended the French government.
