Two European monarchs share the title of World’s Shortest Reign. In 1830, Louis-Antoine of France took the throne as King Louis XIX after his father’s resignation, but he, too, resigned 20 minutes later, and became the shortest-reigning monarch in history. His record was tied in 1908 by Prince Luís Filipe of Portugal, who became king after his father’s assassination, but he lasted only 20 minutes before dying from the wounds he suffered during the attack.

Little-known downsides of immortality:

Tearing your favourite article of clothing and discovering that it’s irreplaceable because the technique of its manufacture has been lost

Realising you’ve thought of the perfect comeback to someone who’s been dead for three hundred years

Not being able to eat your favourite dish anymore because the source of some critical ingredient has gone extinct

Having strong opinions about sports that are no longer played

Getting a song from the 13th Century stuck in your head and being unable to get it out because you don’t remember how it ends and you’re the only person on Earth who knows it

Having that perfect pun you’ve been waiting forever for a chance to use stop working due to linguistic drift

Different languages marking long vowels

Languages: We need to mark vowel length somehow.

Hungarian: I'll use accents. O is short, ó is long, ö is short, ő is long and so on.

Languages: How extremely neat!

Dutch: I'll double vowels, man is short, maan is long.

Languages: Very nice.

Dutch: But if the word goes on, single vowels are already long, e.g. manen, so we double the consonant after it to make it short, e.g. mannen.

Languages: Well, alright.

German: I'll add an h after vowels to make them long, especially e, not so much after i. Or double them. But hand-written ii would look like ü, so I'll replace that with ie, and uu, ää, öö and üü are simply not allowed. And single vowels before single consonants are long anyway, so I'll double consonants after short vowels.

Languages: Your spelling is going to be a total mess, but at least reading will still be completely clear in almost all cases.

English: I'm going to add an e

Languages: Okay

English: … at the end of the word.

Languages: What?!

English: E.g. hat is short and hate is long. But after v I always add an e, so gave is long but have is short.

Languages: o.o

Chinese and Turkish: We don't really have short and long vowels, everything is kinda the same length.

Languages: Probably a good choice.

Arabic and Hebrew: We're just not going to write the short vowels.

Languages: Waaaaaaaaaah!
