Angry protesters in Cape Town have confronted the king and queen of the Netherlands as they visited a museum that traces part of their country's 150-year involvement in slavery in South Africa.
However they don’t hold much power over the day to day workings of the country.
The current monarch is essentially an ambassador that travels around the world for state visits and diplomatic talks. Similar to what a president and foreign minister would do.
I doubt support for the royals would be so high if not for all the national and international PR work that they do.

Do they frequently go on poverty tourism to enjoy the spectacle of cultures their people have destroyed? It’s that helpful to your country?

I’m not the head of state of a nation that built my personal wealth from the slave trade.
