Democracy V.s Monarchy. Monarchy Had A Longer Period Of Success! by KingSango(m): 5:46pm On Jan 23, 2017
There's no such as one man one vote. Because how can you trust the ones counting? And pinning all the hopes upon a leader is chaos. Democracies are always changing faces at the top because they are based upon popularity, whims, and slick propaganda of the Oligarchies that control them from the background. Demoracy promises separation of Church and state yet the Church is running the order of the state via various hidden connections. Rome is in complete control over all Democracies as it originated in Rome and are Christian states.

Empires and kingdoms are held together by loyalty to family. The Kings family, royal family, nobles and their families, and each family below,commoners, who are tied to the long line of ancestors. Ifa is the religion of Oyo Empire, Ogboni is the proper term, which means Ogboni only serve Olodumare and not the King ultimately. All the corruption in Africa only came with the colonizers and their guest faiths. Their system of order has failed African and we discard them completely to reach our goals of the African Union for 2063. The African system is more superior. Ase.

Disagree kindoms aren't more successful look at how they eventually played out. They create class system where people usually subjecated as peasants due to their authority coming from God. Republics and democracy works better than monarchies. Just take look today.

Democracies work better because power is spread out and economic success is based on productivity of the populace. Also democracy has more keys to power to maintain authority. I made topic about it (nobody cared though tongue.

Both your monarchy and democracy are all messed up systems that have failed abysmally in this country because of inherent cultural flaws. Present day democracy in this country is even saddled by a serf mentality from most of the populace which allows the likes of buhari to get away with a whole lot of atrocities simply because most clans in this country have already been prepared for subservient existence by their default monarchical set ups. . Monarchies are atrocious concepts that should be left as a relic from a prehistoric past. Without a certain level of forced liberalism, most monarchies would still be busy stifling societal growth. Blunting the modernization of cultural tools has always been a political tool in the hands of monarchies desperate to outlast their usefulness. The job of a government should be the opposite.

Democracy in this clime on the other hand is a 'feel good' tag that is defined and practiced depending on the mentality of the political drivers in any given society. A society is not there simply because she is tagged a democratic state. A state is there because it has conscious leaders willing to utilize power for common good. The password here is "good-leadership". Essentially, the good thing about democracy is the text book definition that allows you to think that you actually elected your leaders and that you can actually fire them if they don't do that for which they were elected. You are fooled to think you are in-charge. We most times run with this impression , yet, warped democracies provide for all sorts of interests groups, both local and foreign, with the opportunity to whimsically infiltrate the system, and manipulate with impunity utilizing all the vulnerabilities that periodic elections provide. Read Gambia..

Formation and maintenance of a party structure is not for the poor and yet the poor dominate the numbers in every society. So how can a costly venture that can only be dominated by the ultra rich carter for the poor?

We get seriously fixated on what is supposed to be without being realistic most times. Democracy is supposed to be a government by the majority, right? But when elections are rigged, when the media takes money from the rich and unleashes an overdose of propaganda favoring a particular candidate against the other, when the umpire takes side, when a cabal gerrymanders its way through by calibrating the political constituents in a way that more districts/polling booths are allocated to sympathetic clans, do we still have a democratic space that can guarantee a government of the people for the people and by the people?

Yet it was communism that brought endless trading surplus and better living standards to the Chinese, it was an army General that put South Korea on the part of technological domination, it was an emperor that made Japan a shining example of urbanization and development, a bunch of ultra hard-line Islamic fundamentalists created a regional power out of the wreck of shahs Iran, Libya was better under a "despot" that under a wayward 'democracy'.. We can go on.... What we need is a benevolent dictator. What we don't have is a trusted system that can routinely throw up such characters,.

Monarchy had its ups and downs but I said it had a longer success rate. Now is that indispute? No. Its indisputable.
