CARD KINGDOM!!!!

In the card kingdom, the royal cards (kings, queens, and jacks) all have oddities and unique attributes that identify the card’s suit. (spade, heart, clubs, and diamond) The king cards each have a specific name after actual kings. The king of diamonds is named Caesar, the king of spades is named David, the king of hearts is named Charles, and the king of clubs is named Alexander. Apart from their given names, the kings have nicknames and physical appearances that are different. The king of hearts is called ‘the suicide king’ because of the sword held to his head. The king of hearts doesn’t have a mustache, and the king of diamonds wields an axe instead of a sword, granting the nickname ‘the man with the axe’. The king of spades is the only one facing the right. The queens have names too. The queen of spades is named Athena, while the queen of hearts is named Judith. The queen of diamonds is named Rachel and queen of clubs is named Argine. The main difference of jacks is, once again, the names. Holger Danske is the jack of spades, the jack of hearts is named La Hire, the jack of diamonds is Hector, and the jack of clubs is named Lancelot.
