What are 5 pros about monarchy?

Question

can anyone tell me 5 things that are good about monarchy?

please be serious.

Answer 1

1.  The tradition of pomp and circumstance - Royalty is a tie to the past, with traditions and customs that are carried out exactly the same way they were hundreds of year ago.

2.  Royalty pays - it's a great little tourism booster.  If England didn't have Buckingham palace, etc., would tourists flock to London like they do???

3.  Royals bring exposure to certain charities that may otherwise be overlooked.

4.  They are working examples of good citizens - for example, military service and charity work.

5.  Morale boosters - great for the country.  Remember the Queen Mother during WWII? Or for that matter, Queen Elizabeth II?  Both gave courage to the British people and the world by showing courage themselves, the Queen Mum staying on in London after the bombings and QEII going into the service.

Answer 2

They claim that a hereditary monarch is likely to be a more competent head-of-state than is an elected president, because the former may have been prepared, from childhood, to serve as such.

They claim that a monarchy may be less costly to maintain than a republic because it spares the state the expense of holding presidential elections, and because the royal family's private fortune may be enough for its own support, as against the public expenditures, in a republic, for the accommodations, pensions and other maintenance of incumbent and former presidents.

They claim that the competition and criticism to which republican presidents typically are exposed, as elected officials and especially during the election campaigns themselves, damages the reputation and dignity of the head of state.

They claim that because republican presidents are typically members of a political party, while monarchs typically stand outside of politics, a president is less well able to serve as a neutral representative of a country and its people.

They claim, likewise, that presidents are obliged to act in accord with the policies and ideas of their political parties, while monarchs can reign more independently political considerations.

They claim that a monarch makes a better visible symbol of national identity and unity than does a president.

They claim that in a republic the continual changes of head-of-state create political uncertainty, which they contrast with the symbolic continuity of having a monarch. Some monarchists even argue that monarchy not only symbolises continuity, but actually guarantees of political stability, and instance, to support this view, historical cases where the abolition of monarchy has been followed by civil wars and the rise of totalitarian systems, such as Jacobinism in France, Nazism in Germany, and Communism in Russia and China
