Flyhighgirl, it is somewhat disheartening to know the people don't know what an encyclopedia is much less what Encyclopedia Britannica is.

RedSeaDiver,
Russia is on the list....

RedSeaDiver
What about Russia! Put in seems to have a job for life there and dictates to his people and the world.

I am not a number.
What about the Vatican? It's an elective monarchy, but that means run by a single person, with no limit to tenure nor powers.

Flyhighgirl, everyone knows what Encyclopedia Britannica is, unless they are blissfully ignorant. I'm a YANK, by the way. You are obviously prejudiced! 😬

In all countries, the greatest power is ever increasingly exercised by the most hidden. Make of that what you will. All political systems are flawed by human biases. Late democracy was bound to decay too; becoming such by its being no better than the renewed opiate, of the quaintly sedated masses.
