Two: It's easier to understand if you watch the movie & anime, but basically the Crown's Guard are the King's royal guards. They're the protectors of the King royal family, palace, and take on personal missions from His Majesty. IE: Personal guards, headed up by the Amicitia Patriarch, IE: Glad's Dad, as I understand it. As opposed to the Lucian military. (Some have suggested they are the Lucian military, but I'm not sure. They seem to be much more specifically based on focusing on the Lucis family).
So. Bear with me. The King's Glaive is a group specifically founded by His Majesty, King Regis, made up of predominantly refugees from outlying Lucian territories whose homes had been taken over by Niflheim. The King's Glaive are literally meant to be the King's Glaive --- his personal weapon against the Nifs. He granted them his magic, much the same way Noctis grants his friends use of his. Seeing as how King Regis is older, has the ring, and is much more powerful, he is able to imbue far more people with his abilities, and give them access to a great deal of power. However, this power is dependant on genetic factors. Not everyone can receive the King's Glaive blessing. The Glaives are literally meant to be an espionage and assault group designed to launch against Niflheim in strategic missions of great import and to stand on the front lines against the Nifs in a way the King himself can not, as he must keep up the wall around Insomnia.
IE: CG are the guardians of the King / Royal family. KG: The living embodiment of the might of the King.
Hope this helped. Registered just to reply to this, lol. Again, LOVE the name.
