I'm imagining the reactions of a few people :-
(a) A Polish businessman trying to sell the idea of Poland as a modern, approachable place to do business.
"Kurwa!! They're making us look like a bunch of extremists stuck in the 16th century !!"
(b) An Iranian politician
"Aiiiieeee !!! Why didn't we think of this first. Quick - let's make Mohammed (may his name be blessed) the Sheik of Iran !"
(c) A Jew in Warsaw
"Oy Vay ! Here we go again"
If I were a Christian (which I am not) I would probably take offense to Jesus being demoted from his position as Saviour of the World to being merely King of Poland.
If I were a Monarchist (which I am not) I would prefer a living, breathing human King/Queen who could veto Laws, greet foreign visitors and open bridges.
As a Republican and an Atheist I'm looking forward to seeing how this whole mess comes out.
