Also parts of America are less in line with the Anglo mindset
I think a dictatorship would probably solve all your problems, so I don't see why there would need to be a transition into monarchy
But yeah, it'd definitely be easier to go from dictatorship to monarchy than try to transition straight from democracy to monarchy
If dictatorships don't have clear lines of succession it causes all sorts of issues in the longterm
Basically Alexander's problem
What happens without an heir but very powerfull gnerals etc.
Being born into royalty makes you weak. Rome had the right idea, adopting sons who would be competent rulers
Of course antipater killed Alexander's son tho
I don't see how being born into royalty makes one weak. if anything it allows you to properly prepare for rule
No hardship. You have a cushy life.
Not necessarily
I think it also makes it harder to relate to the common folk
Lots of learning and bureaucracy to do
Sometimes people expect them to lead
Someone who was raised a commoner but is a genius, understands what it's like
Anyway, I think we can both agree that a dictatorship would be a step in the right direction. Even if we don't agree on the final end point
Yeah
The metaphysics must be right, thats the most important part
I think that if a king raises their child(ren) properly they grow up to be good rulers.
Just don’t let them live a cushy life and force them to do jobs considered as crappy.
Make their young childhood fun but make them struggle when they are teens and young adults so that they don’t become spoiled.
>a king
>their
fam...
What?
King are men
It’s HIS children
Don’t adopt leftist nonenglish
I was thinking of king AND Queen when I said the their bit.
I just didn’t put Queen in there because I was being retarded.
Machiavelli talks about this in The Prince
I agree that saying their for everything is gay af.
Good times create weak men etc
A prince ought to be educated in the history of warfare and be raised to hunt
To know what it takes to lure and kill your enemies and to learn the lay of the land
How valleys slope and forests conceal
Everyone should. It is just extra important for rulers to.
So that he may know how to lead a battle when the time comes
Reminder that the mongols were raised hunting mice and herding on horseback
And conquered half the world’s population in an afternoon with six horses and a banana
Anyway not a question
