You believe that a strong, centralized leadership under a hereditary ruler can provide stability, continuity, and effective governance for the nation.
Monarchism is a political ideology that advocates for the establishment, preservation, or enhancement of a monarchy as a form of government. Monarchists believe in the rule by a king, queen, or emperor, who typically inherits their position by birthright. The monarch's power can range from absolute, where they have complete control over the government and its people, to constitutional, where their powers are limited by a constitution or other forms of government legislation.
The history of monarchism is as old as civilization itself, with monarchies being one of the earliest form…

How do you think growing up in a kingdom would affect your perception of authority and power?
@9K9HMPZWomen’s Equality3mos3MO
Maybe would be horrible because they always take control of their own people.
@9K9LRMP3mos3MO
because you grew up knowing somone is above you with higher power so that hold over your head and keeps you in line because you are scared of the higher power.
@9K9HQBDRepublican 3mos3MO
I definitely think so, It would be a completely different experience
@9K9J6D23mos3MO
I would be closed off from the world and wouldn't be able to be my own person
Freedom would be something that person would not have the ability to have.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
If you were born into a royal family, what aspects of your current life do you think you'd miss the most?
@9K9GM7SRepublican3mos3MO
Living a normal life and not being known by everyone, also less stress
@9K9H37S3mos3MO
Going and hanging out with neighbors and not always having attention from the press maybe.
@9K9H6JG 3mos3MO
Private life, chill life, relaxing, sleeping school, normal, and the ability to vote on who becomes president.
@9K9G9G73mos3MO
I would miss not having a lot of pressure on me, I would also miss my family and not wondering if someone liked me for me or if they just wanted to be in the royal family.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Would having a royal family influence your sense of national pride and why?
@9JFFJ754mos4MO
No, having a royal family with not give me a national pride as it feels like I will be worshipping that person for the rest of my life and the only person I would be willing to worship would be God and his mother.
@9JH2BTJ4mos4MO
I feel as though having a royal family gives your country something as a tradition. These generations of families have been ruling a country for centuries. They have been there for the good and the bad. Lifting up the country from the ruins and bringing it towards glory.
No. It would raise my animosity towards the state because it institutionalizes supremacy.
@9JHX5SV4mos4MO
The disappointing legacy of the British Royal Family have turned Americans off of the idea of having a royal family. Whether it be King George's refusal to surrender the 13 colonies or King Henry VIII's murderous tendencies, Americans see the royal family as an interesting part of British history. As Americans, we are among the most patriotic nations in the world because none of us are royalty and any of us could one day help to run our nation.
@9JFFRN9Republican4mos4MO
maybe becasue the family would be more respected than the country.
@9JFFTH5 4mos4MO
I would be ashamed to live in a nation that believes that certain people are given the right to rule over others.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
Could the assurance of knowing who your future leader will be, as with a monarchy, be comforting in an uncertain world?
@9KND6TG2mos2MO
No, I think that even if we know who is running we won't be able to know what they are going to do so that won't make a difference.
@9KNCXYG2mos2MO
No because it would put the entire fate in one individual who could not be supported by the entire population.
@9KNCF3P2mos2MO
I am against Monarchism to an extant because i feel it is secluded decision making. The idea of one person making most of the decisions is not a way to run a country, i believe in democracy.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
How would you react if you suddenly learned you were next in line for a throne?
@9HJZ3QXRepublican5mos5MO
I would try my best for a while and pick up on if I'm doing bad, so when i realized i do, do bad i can elect someone else.
I would be paranoid that someone would try to kill me to take my spot.
@9HJYQ855mos5MO
I do not believe I am a suitable person for the job, nor do I think a monarchy is a good idea. If I were next in line, I would probably attempt to abdicate.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Do you think a country benefits more from a hereditary leader than an elected official?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
If you could design a government system, would you include a monarch; why or why not?
@9HJK2VG5mos5MO
no, i wouldn't, it leads to abuse of power far too easily.
@Doc-Doc.5mos5MO
No, why would I do that? Communities should have leaders, but these should be average people who are held by the same laws and regulations that other average people are. Leadership is not a role above others, but rather a different way of serving those around you in a different way.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
What are the challenges of balancing respect for tradition with the need for innovation in your own life, as in a monarchy?
@9J3ZNYP4mos4MO
Tradition, especially a tradition of monarchism, is a fundamental evil that must be opposed.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
If every family had a 'ruler,' what would you want your family monarch to prioritize for the household’s welfare?
@9J4P835Progressive4mos4MO
Quality of life, betterment for future of the family
@9J4P38B4mos4MO
Prioritize mental health, quality time, and freedom of speech.
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
How would you address the challenge of maintaining individuality within the structured roles of a monarchical family?
@9L5WKX72mos2MO
In classical monarchism, the main issue in sequential family heirs is the assurance of the quality of their ruling. A check system much like USA's check system that is just as powerful as the monarch and their family should be in place. Each person, whether royal or not, make mistakes and have their own unique dreams wants and ambitions, losing those ambitions and wants is something often required of an heir, and when you lose your individuality, you lose drive, and subsequently the ability to confidently lead. Heirs should not be required to hold their office, but may be required to find a suitable replacement alongside a checking force.
@9L5VBTC2mos2MO
honor your father and your mother that it may go well with you
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
How much influence should tradition and heritage have over the decisions you make in your daily life?
@9K95YGGRepublican3mos3MO
Tradition and heritage should have little to none influence over the decisions I make in my daily life.
@9K95RHX3mos3MO
I think tradition and heritage should have little influence over how you make your decisions.
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
Have you ever wished for a role in life where all your decisions were respected without question, and how did that make you feel?
Yes however it is a oppressive system and that feeling should be suppressed
@9L8ZGPY2mos2MO
I would like to because that would mean I don't have to back up or support my claim, I would be able to say whatever I want
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Can a monarch truly understand the experiences and struggles of their average citizen?
@9HGZYBM5mos5MO
Yes depending on the upbringing and previous living situation before they have been given the power.
