Dragon King of Bhutan marries - holyforest - 2011-10-13
Jigme Khesar, the world's youngest reigning monarch married a commoner today in Bhutan. As a king that doesn't like to attract media attention, no foreign royalty or celebrities were invited. It was a traditional wedding for the people of Bhutan. Now, the king and queen are traveling all over the nation in the next 3 days to visit as many of their people as they can. In the mean time, the Bhutanese people will be celebrating.
Watch the videos =) I love cultures like this. They are a wonderful people.

What a bamfing title. "Dragon king".
His "commoner wife" is pretty cute, too.

Yeah. His actual title is "Druk Gyalpo," which is Dzongkha (the language of Bhutan) for Dragon King. The nation itself is known as the Land of the Thunder Dragon.
