~~The Duchy of Lancaster, a controversial land and property estate that generates huge profits for~~ King Charles III, ~~has collected tens of millions of pounds in recent years under~~ an antiquated system that dates back to feudal times.

OMG! Are you telling me the british monarchy is related to feudalism!!!

I just think it's funny how the article is pointing out antiquated customs used by the King when he himself is an antiquated custom.
