Speyerland

Speyerland, the great country, run by the absolute monarchy and Queen Sophia. The time has come for the government system to transform as to better suit the people. A completely new idea of who controls our government and how it intertwines with the citizens of its country. Absolute monarchy has, for far too long, been a system implemented in Speyerland where the government takes advantage of its citizens. The reign of the monarchy must come to an end, for it has separated itself from its people and drifted away, ignoring the lives of those who stand below them. A new form of government must be set to create a balance within Speyerland; one that represents the community as a whole. I propose a representative government to replace the absolute …show more content…
If the government were to provide such for the society, wouldn’t it be reasonable for the society to have a say in what happens? Despite having complete control over the country’s political power, the monarchy completely separates themselves from their people and decide without outside input what to do within their country. This is further emphasized by the contrast between the quality of life these two groups share. On one hand, we have Queen Sophia with her riches and opulent accessories, and on the other, we have the poor men, women, and children who struggle to get by and make a living, much less have such frippery as the royalty does. The people of Speyerland must have an input in our government and will not stand to sit in silence to have their problems pushed aside and ignored much like our government has done. We need someone to represent our opinions and give us a voice. A representative government perfectly demonstrates the idea of the government listening to its people before making their political decision. This form of government will make it better for the people of Speyerland because of their ability to have input in what goes on in the politics of the country. As part of the process of choosing a leader, the representative states their political plans and views and then the people choose who will be their leader based on the …show more content…
This power, bestowed upon the government of Speyerland, has absolutely no restrictions on what they can and can not do. Corruption and abuse of the overwhelmingly immense power is inevitable, as said by Charles de Secondat Baron de Montesquieu: “… constant experience shows us that every man invested with power is apt to abuse it, and to carry his authority as far as it will go.” and the famous remark from John Emerich Edward Dalberg-Acton: “Absolute power corrupts absolutely,”. “Absolute” much like the absolute monarchy in place now! It seems that it is clearly evident how the monarchy holds excessive and dangerous capabilities, and they have already taken advantage of their power, and using it for their own personal preferences. Such as their respect — or rather, lack of respect — towards dissenting Christian groups. This government has pushed these people away within their own prejudice, not that of the community. They have tried to exile our people only because we lack alignment with their religion. It is the dissenting Christians, and only the dissenting Christians who are victim to the hatred held by the monarchy. No other religious groups, such as Judaism or Islam, have been specifically targeted to be exiled, thus displaying their
