Monarchists

[Mouzafphaerre]

Unite!

No matter you prefer the absolute, parliamentary or symbolic kind. It must be true monarchy though, hereditary or at least dynastic. If enough attendance happens we can start a club or a social group restoration revolution maybe.

Please specify, if you don't mind, what kind of a monarchist you are; absolutist, parliamentary or symbolic (non-functional).

Hereby I declare that I, Mouzafphaerre, am a parliamentary monarchist. TC prosecutors, come and get me!

[seireikhaan]

I would say a parliamentary monarch. A balance between the people's vote and the hereditary line.

[HoreTore]

I will fight your inbreds till the end of time!!



.....Or until they're all so inbred that they're incapable of reproducing living offspring.... Which honestly shouldn't be too long now...

[Furunculus]

Constitutional monarchy = teh win*



* for Britain.

[Kralizec]

Off with your heads!

[CountArach]

Are Republicans welcome?

[Reenk Roink]

(Enlightened) Absolut(e/ism)

They have a counter plan for that. It seems that they've started to marry the lower classes.

[Mouzafphaerre]

Totally unwelcome.

[woad&fangs]

An unelected executive combined with an elected legislature and a good system of checks and balances. Democracy works great on a local level but turns into a sceaming match when 300 million people are involved.

[Jolt]

Convict Republican.

[KarlXII]

Parliamentary Monarchist.

Mouz- It may seem like an obvious question, but what Monarchy are you in support of?

And also, Monarchists: Maniac established a group.

[Samurai Waki]

Very liberal leaning Parliamentary Monarchy. Like Sweden, or Norway. Curse being an American, although I suppose I will have a better chance of inciting a general revolt, and Installing myself as King... and I refuse to allow inbreds into my hereditary line, if the choices are Marry the Daughter of King **** who happens to also be your uncle, then obviously the right choice will be to marry a vivacious curvy Latina.

[rotorgun]

Since God is an Absolute Monarchist who gives us a choice to believe in him or not, I guess If I had to be a a King, I would be a Parliamentary Monarchist type. We may be addressed as Your Highness or Your Excellency if you please.

Curse being an American...-Wakizashi

Hey...that's a little rough...ouch!

[rory_20_uk]

I'm not sure exactly. Probably I'd go with Reenk Roink - Absolute (Enlightened).

In theory it's the best, right up until a complete prat is on the throne (look at the Ottoman Empire for example).

In the UK, MPs and Civil Servants effectively supervise themselves and this shows with their toothless regulators, massive pensions and holidays (and they can still whinge!). If oversight was in the hands of a "good" Monarch this could be kept in line. Our current incumbent would be up to it, but it does create massive problems if the position of power is abused.

[Samurai Waki]

I curse my freedom loving ways, only because I don't have a lifelong ruler to complain about.

[Rhyfelwyr]

The problem with monarchs is that you never know when you'll get some drooling idiot on the throne. So, perhaps a solution for the future would be to design a perfect robot-king to rule over us. One that will be programmed to rule for the people's good, one that will never do anything corrupt etc. I think it's the only solution.

Interesting, but if His Majesty's programming works as well as our computer network at my job, we're going to be in for a rough ride.

[Jolt]

Then his Majesty's program is hacked into by a 12-year old geek, who begins effectively ruling UK himself.

The good news is; none of us really care what happens to the brits....

That comment coming from a Norwegian... oh, the irony!

[Louis VI the Fat]

I'll never understand why some people long not to govern themselves. I mean, at some point a man turns eightteen, and ought to assume responsibility for his own life.



Some remarks:
Until the modern state, monarchs didn't spend their time keeping a bureaucracy and politicians in check. They spend their every waking our keeping the other noble families in check.

Why do people only ever talk about national monarchs? Why not re-instate feudalism? After all, if a monarchy is so great, why not use the system at the provincial level, estate level? Then we'd have even more people to bow to and be inferior to!

Monarchs are great to project imaginary 'if only's' on. 'If only there was a good king', 'if only the king would know'. Well, real life isn't a Disney's Cinderella cartoon. Society has conflicting interests, politics, painful choices to make. Even a hypothetical perfect monarch won't change a thing about that. Never has, never will. Not how government works. Only in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs - 'some day my prince will come...'

[FactionHeir]

In other news Britain suspends government of its island territory and installs the governor as ruler in true colonial fashion

Ouch, this is going to hurt.

[HoreTore]

The difference is that we Norwegians are perfectly aware of the fact that nobody cares about us

[lars573]

I prefer a parlimentary monarchy. With a written constitution. Where the monarch is the referee in parliment.

[Mouzafphaerre]

Mouz- It may seem like an obvious question, but what Monarchy are you in support of?

Well, it must be obvious indeed. However, given the current circumstances, I prefer saying it's hypothetical. That obvious dynasty, btw, seem totally uninterested in re-establishing themselves, in which I can't blame them.

Actually, I meant what Monarchy you support (Established or wish to establish).

I assumed Turkish, but just want to be sure.

[Mouzafphaerre]

.
Oh, that. Well, I don't believe in nations and strongly dislike nation states. So, my ideal monarchy should be established in a broader land, with federatively or confederatively united -current- countries.

That's an interesting take.

The Austrian Black and Yellow Alliance has a similar position. They wish to assemble the modern nations that were once part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire under a common parliament with a Hapsburg as Monarch.

I think they're interesting.
