I think the monarchy/democracy debate is mostly grounded in an unrealistic formalism. All human societies are oligarchies. The difference between a monarchy and a democracy is not so much who rules, but how the ruling regime is justified and legitimized.https://twitter.com/renaissancezoey/status/1409427339281317888 …

Oh, cool thread! To clarify, I get that Swiss-to-Swazi comparison isn't like to like. My point is that the other ways in which they're un-alike are more important than the monarchy/democracy distinction, making the latter a bit of a "who cares?" IMO.

Can you clarify for me the distinction between Axis 2 (hidden/open) and 3 (formal/informal)? What would an open informal or a hidden formal society look like?
