Just because you dont like Monarchs, it doesnt mean you dont like the people of the country. I think the German thing is relevent because it shows that, with monarchies, it possible that someone who as little or no connection with a country, maybe never visited it and doesnt speak the language can be put in charge for life! Absurd - has happened several times in England and with other Monarchies. If the truth be told, in Europe, one close knit family has managed to obtain most of the Monarchies in Europe. One small family suppressing millions of European people.
