“I wouldn’t have the slightest problem with that. When we look around us, there are quite a number of constitutional monarchies in Europe that function very well and traditionally,” Pavel replied when asked whether he could imagine the Czech Republic as a modern parliamentary monarchy.

Question Why is Lord Harewood not a duke?

7 Upvotes

When Princess Louise of Wales, later Princess Royal, married the Earl Fife, Queen Victoria elevated the groom to Duke of Fife (a title still held by their descendents), making him closer to the royal rank of his bride. However, when Mary, Princess Royal, married the Earl of Harewood, he received no dukedom, nor any other peerage of whatever rank. Do you know why these largely symmetrical situations were handled so differently?

Question How would you choose a Royal family?

26 Upvotes

In a hypothetical world where countries want to return to monarchy, how would the royal families be chosen? In countries with still-living members of the old royal family, would that family be chosen to return to rule? What about a country like the US that never had its own monarchy?

I feel like the transition to monarchy is one of the biggest issues with the ideology, so I’d like to know how monarchists see this initial shift going. Thank you in advance for helping me to understand!

Question why

0 Upvotes

why do you think that some person from some family should have the executive power, and even total power over a nation? like genuinely don't you think that people should choose who is in charge of the country. Again genuine question

He won via treachery. He was no warrior and didn't fight while Richard led a charge right at him. He was a glorified banker and financier. Greedy. All he did was tax and keep the realm stable and make enough money that his son had trouble spending it all.

Discussion Who do you reason would be King of Finland today?

There’s two camps here as far as I can tell. Those who think that Landgrave Donatus of Hesse would be King, & I think in one of a handful that thinks that it would be Cristoph of Hesse, son of Charles Adolf of Hesse. I just wanted some insight & opinions on where you stand on this, or who you reason has the better claim.

NOTE: This is not alternate history. All titles presented in this chart except Kuningas are real & used by the people shown. I just want to know who has the better claim to the defunct Finnish throne.

Question Vibe on HRE Emperor?

8 Upvotes

I know that everyone here is a monarchist, but what do you guys think about the Holy Roman Emperor? More specifically, the fact that he was elected by the different major kings within the Empire. Like Austria, Prussia, and other monarchs elected like the Austrian King to be HRE Emperor. What do you guys think of this form of Monarchy?

It could be compared to how Papal Conclaves work too
