Kingdom Governments

I agree, and disagree. The term kingdom is used loosely on Graal, it isn't exactly literal.

I know that, and I don't thinks that's exactly...the correct thing to do.

It refers moreso to a player-run role-playing body than the exact definition. And if there's Empires, why not Republics? Spread the power around, spice things up. I might post a small draft of what I came up with, just for an example. And like Kamuii pointed out, there's been parliamentary governments for a loooong time.

Understandable, but no matter what kind of ruling body/government you have, there will always be power-hungry people who will try to keep others from getting more power. Even in republics, or a parliament. I'm sure a Shogun thought about overthrowing the Emperor some time, in their career.

And for your last comment, that's why it should probably be used in a completely new kingdom so people don't whine about losing their supposed status. Though I'm afraid that's all people will do if something like it does go into effect. People on Graal are crazy about ranks and such, and the thought of being able to ave them taken away in a flash mught turn some people off.

Power, rank, status... does it really matter that much? The thurst for all of these things is what runs a role-playing enviroment.

Like you said, it would be hard for it to work. But it could be done, with a bit of time.

And someone busting an ego or two.
