Welcome to The Future! (Please enjoy responsibly.)
Absurd levels of luxury. Enjoy material comforts the kings and queens of old could never have imagined.Hot water on demand in virtually every home, no fire necessary. Heaters, fans and “air conditioning technology” allow you to even adjust the temperature of the air itself to match your preference, any time of year. Enjoy fine soaps, lotions, textiles and perfumes. Even spices and teas are readily available, in hundreds of exotic varieties. Be shuttled around the globe in automobiles and flying machines, even if you have no royal blood at all.- - Raptitude

Sigh* I miss the good ol' days when a Cabriolet sedan chair, carried by footmen "domestics", over those muddy roads, designated one as "smart" and "important".
Drag racing was hell on "the help" of course.

In a land of knives the one gun man is king.
My uncle Letsgo Lozko, he raised bantam chickens. They enjoyed more comforts than the typical citizens of a century ago. They were productive as well.
