>However there is a dictator amendment in the constitution (Roman republic kind), where someone in the official Royal family (no unknown bastards) can be declared dictator (let’s say a 2/3 majority in the senate) for a one year period wherein the state becomes temporarily absolutist. I see it as solving the problems with republicanism and monarchism, and without the risks involved in the Roman republic for it to slip into a permanent dictatorship.
>As well his legitimacy doesn’t come from god or his military might but from the constitution. As well it prevents potential sociopaths (cough Gaius cough) from rising up and gaining enough power to force himself as dictator as its limited to the royal family.
Anon, on paper this is stupid, in practice it will be more so, we live in an era where people do not fear god, thus making righteous acts be a sign of weakness rather than strength. You also cannot be tyrannical to a state which can have a dictatorship that allows the civilian to be armed and then the next not to, it will backfire in your face.
