  1. Anyone who has enough money to buy land stands to gain a great deal of political power, so long as that individual accepts submission to the royal family by paying taxes towards them.

    In a sense nothing has changed since those days other than that there is now a large administrative body in position, and that body controls a fair bit more power than the royal family.

    Even if the two are inseperable and ultimately would perform the same roles if one was independant of the other.

    What i dislike about this kind of ruling is that it used to be the case that one would buy land, and the people whom live upon that land would be treated as if they had been bought - as such if you do not swear loyalty to the lordship then you stood to be enslaved or killed.

    And that is pretty much how organised crime operates these days too.


  2. just 3 fiddlers

  3. Absolute monarchs.

    Because it's good to be the king.

  4. whomever is in power.

  5. Well it depends on the monarch. If you have a good one everybody benefits, if you have a bad one nobody except the monarch does. That is the problem with the monarchy system. Having a single individual in charge of the government has a few advantages. It is more focused and stable in many respects. The problem comes in making sure you have a good monarch on the throne. Democracy is much less focused and variable. Decision by committee is much more likely to change and be slower to do so in a crisis where rapid decisions are needed. The advantage of a democracy is that one bad ruler is much less disastrous than an absolute ruler would be and frequently has a much shorter term in office.

  6. The monarchs, absolute monarchies are a nice way of saying dictatorships.
