Now it's going to get ugly for an extended period of time as the squabbling for control takes place... :(

Gloriously, the people of Nepal threw off the yoke of the parasitic monarchy. Hurrah.

The vote was 564 against 4, the king has 15 days to vacate the castles.

Let us hope that the UK and Denmark follows in the footsteps of the nepalese.

LOL! Doesn't Denmark have a monarchy? And aren't all monarchies parasitic by nature? :cool:

nah, not going to happen.

The late Crown Prince having a psychotic episode and killing his parents and siblings was just a disaster for the Nepalese Monarchy. By the way I saw that the Indian Princess he wanted to marry, was married her self a month or so ago.

The current King is a disaster. But we shall see how the Nepalese like dealing with the Maoists instead.

Ah, and we've seen how well that's worked.
France and the US have done pretty well without a monarchy. Too bad the americans did not guillotine the
british monarch.

I forget which Boston Loyalist it was wrote "Better to be ruled by one tyrant 3,000 miles away than by 3,000 tyrants a mile away."

Also, I don't know if I'd hold up the Reign of Terror as a role model. Furthermore France has gone back and forth several times since then.

I think the chances of the US and France returning to the monarchy are
slimmer than the UK and Denmark abolishing the parasites.

Certainly I'd agree. Although in the 1950's President deGaulle, seeming entertained the thought referring numerous times to the Comte de Paris (one of the French Claimants) as "my successor."

The proletariat has been the loser in absolutely every government system. The only thing that ever changes the people who get that privilege..

To a significant extent yes, Constitutional Monarchies serve an important function. However, I'm also a believer in noblesse oblige.

MONARCHY FOREVER
REPUBLIC NEVER
We will raise the guillotine in Trafalger Square. What a glorious day it will be.
Please join in:

Allons enfants de la Patrie
Le jour de gloire est arrivé
Contre nous de la tyrannie
|: L'étendard sanglant est levé :|
Entendez vous dans les campagnes
Mugir ces féroces soldats
Ils viennent jusque dans vos bras,
égorger vos fils, vos compagnes
Aux armes citoyens! Formez vos bataillons!
Marchons, marchons,
Qu'un sang impur abreuve nos sillons.

2. Que veut cette horde d'esclaves
De traîtres, de Rois conjurés?
Pour qui ces ignobles entraves,
|: Ces fers dès longtemps préparés? :|
Anglais! pour nous, ah! quel outrage!
Quels transports il doit exciter!
C'est nous qu'on ose méditer
De rendre à I 'antique esclavage!

3. Quoi! des cohortes étrangères
Feraient la loi dans nos foyers!
Quoi! ces phalanges mercenaires
|: Terrasseraient nos fiers guerriers :|
Grand Dieu! par des mains enchaînées
Nos fronts sous le joug se ploieraient!
De viIs despotes deviendraient
Les maîtres de nos destinées!

4. Tremblez, tyrans! et vous, perfides,
L'opprobe de tous les partis,
Tremblez! vos projets parricides
|: Vont enfin recevoir leur prix.:|
Tout est soldat pour vous combattre,
S'ils tombent, nos jeunes héros,
La terre en produit de nouveaux
Contre vous tout prêts à se battre.

5. Anglais! en guerriers magnanimes
Portez ou retenez vos coups.
Epargnez ces tristes victimes
|: A regret s'armant contre nous. :|
Mais le despote sanguinaire,
Mais les complices de Bouillé,
Tous ces tigres qui sans pitié
Déchirent le sein de leur mère.

6. Nous entrerons dans la carrière,
Quand nos aînés n'y seront plus
Nous y trouverons leur poussière
|: Et les traces de leurs vertus. :|
Bien moins jaloux de leur survivre
Que de partager leur cercueil,
Nous aurons le sublime orgueil
De les venger ou de les suivre.

7. Amour sacré de la Patrie
Conduis, soutiens nos bras vengeurs!
Liberté, Liberté chérie!
|: Combats avec tes défenseurs. :|
Sous nos drapeaux, que la victoire
Accoure à tes mâles accents,
Que tes ennemis expirant
Voient ton triomphe et notre gloire!
