Suddenly you're the ruler of your brand new ethnostate that's just what you dreamed: What are your first few laws or decrees?

My idea is an elected parliament, except the ruler has final discretion over who is elected. I'm questioning as to whether it should be a constitutional monarchy, or an absolute monarchy that transitions into a constitutional monarchy.

Subsidies in industries will be granted to those which maintain the ethnic character of the nation. In addition, grants and opportunities will be offerd to larger families. Media and education must reflect the character of the nation.

Can you expand on what you mean by the 1st paragraph? Like the King has great discretion to choose his cabinet out of those elected (sort of like Britain pre-civil war)? Or does he get to vet who can run for office?

I’m not a huge fan of monarchy tbh. Mussolini famously allowed the Royalty to retain power only for the King to stab his people in the back during their darkest hour. Romania had a similar experience during the war IIRC. The whole genetic lottery thing is a big drawback too… I think you need something more meritocratic especially given how complex government is in this day & age.

Media and education must reflect the character of the nation.

Always by far the most important thing to implement 👍🏻 Don’t do this and you’re never really in control.

Yeah, I was intentionally brief for that reason because I realized how difficult it is to implement. I want a government that people have stake in, but is vetted by an authority that has heredity in line with the character of the nation. However, I also want a nation that outlines the powers and limitations of its authority as openly as possible and isn't entirely controlled by its head of state. I think that a constitutional monarchy fits in line with this.

What I failed to realize was that is that there is no check to ensure that the genetic lineage of the royalty will stay within the nation's character. It could be baked in to the constitution that the ruler may only have power if that's true, but I think that's difficult to enforce.
