@SPMLegend Im studying state craft alot and there is repeating themes.
1. Kingdoms. This is inherited and if the ppl respect it still, it will survive the longest.
2. Violence. Came thru civil war or coups. Some coups r bloodless tho and different to violent coup. They tend to be 'military' ruled countries
3. Constitution and peaceful assembly
4. Theocracies
This is the angle I view any nation I begin reviewing it, I know their future outcome already. I grade which nations is in PL interest for long-term relationship. The group 3 are the nations we shud target as friends and partners to learn from each other system. Group 1 also due to our 'isimo' and what role they should play due to their historical 'legitimacy', key word 'legitimacy' is hard to establish.
The Isimo n State crafting is mandatory or else one can over-ride the other if not 'crafted' thru harmony. The Isimo should be a strong check n balance 'officially' without 'govt involvement' but have 'state powers' to dissolve govt, recognize govt, and emergency reserve powers to save our ppl in the event of state collapse. Once they have 'state' powers, they won't care for day to day govt duties.
This is a big area I want to tell PL to craft in our 'state organs'. State n govt is different, govt is one section of the 'state'. What will happen is what happened to koonfuur, their isimo become worthless and disrespected and if their state collapses, u can see umadaasi way 'tirtirmayan' hence isimo having 'oversight' power and 'reserve' powers is mandatory in my book but they don't need to get involved in day-to-day govt affairs.
