Well the fact that the USA has more Corruption than the UK kinda disproves your statement doesnt it?
The whole debacle of the US elections amd threats of the Court determining the outcome is the very reason why a Independent Monarch overseeing Parliament is a better system for head of state than a US style Presidency.

Well, we know the outcome of the election for certain, so for now America doesn't need a monarch. If we're still in recession by Biden's 1 year anniversary, I'm becoming an American Monarchist.

So the opinion of the average people (of average intelligence) counts more than a family that might all be above average due to education and *cough cough* maybe genetics *cough cough*

Most monarchs and nobility in Europe were so inbred that they couldn't be bumped into too hard or go outside of too long or else they'd get massive bruises and sunburns.
nd by too hard I mean a light tap.

1. I know of haemophilia in the Victorian age was a probably but then that isn’t a problem now (as evidenced by the combat service of the then Prince, Harry amongst other examples). 2. The answer to that is simple, allow your nobles to marry outside of Europe. That will broaden the gene pool.

Bro the Habsburgs were neither of both lmao
A Monarch is like a Tankette, yes we can have it, yes it can still serve its intended function, the problem is: There's already an X for Y. The president is as much of a recognisable figure as say the Queen, The ambassador is as smooth speaking (I guess) as the King's English, it doesn't stop a monarch from existing, let alone govern. It's just that the modern world sees a Monarch as an ancient rock, and therefore should be disposed of. Elective Monarchies anyone?

I actually agree with elective monarchies. What gives one of the monarch’s children a better right to govern just because they were born earlier?
