I am a:
-35th great-grandson of King Alfred the Great of England
-32nd great-grandson of Charlemagne
-27th great-grandson of King William the Conquerer
-23rd great-grandson of King Edward the Longshanks of England
-22nd great-grandson of King Robert the Bruce of Scotland
-26th great-grandson of King Phillip II of France
-8th cousin of Henry VIII
If I went to England, out of curiosity, could I get titles or some type of benefit?

I am not expecting anything, assuming this is quite common, but I'm just curious.

You get a new relative- ME!
Except I think our 2 families branch in different direction after King Edward Longshanks because I am not related to King Robert the Bruce.
We are also both related to King William the Conqueror.
Hello cousin!!

I doubt that you could receive any type of benefits.And to carry a title,you need to be in direct line of succession to hold the title.
You can always contact Debrett's or Burke's Peerage to see if you qualify to hold a title.

You would get absolutely nothing...though if you came here as an asylum seeker you would drown under the benefits you would probably get...but because you are so far removed from actual royalty you would get zilch...you wouldn't get anything if you were any closer related either...

Nope. Your relations are far too removed to mean anything. There are probably tens of thousands of people with closer relations to British royalty than you.

The only perk you get is all of that wonderful genetic material (and interesting conversation with your friends.)

You could flaunt it by telling people how superior you are.
