Shinju no Nectar - Ch. 48 - The Worthy

It certainly wouldn't be the first time a Japanese series holds monarchy as The Best Thing Ever (as long as the "right" person is in charge, of course), where "the monarch should have all the power" is seen as the solution to all problems, or that fetishizes Ancien Regime empires and aristocracies over "ineffectual", "corrupt" and "not as cool" democracies.

That said, given its good use of historical tropes in previous chapters and Albion's obvious parallelisms with England, I believe this may be a commentary on how uprisings in the style of the French Revolution or 19th century revolutions didn't take root in the British Empire. As Britain, Albion may be monarchical, imperialistic and aristocratic, but it has liberties that Dhala seems to lack, and a parliament where people hostile to the current monarch can make a career. Even if certain politicians and many youngsters might have radical democratic sympathies, a revolt like the academy's was too artificial to be believable, which was Luka's point.

@omegaxis1 problem is not democracy vs monarchy, but power struggle in the middle of the war. Insurrection at these times only brings trouble to everyone in the country. And monarchy isn't always bad, it depends on how much power royalty have, how much power nobles have and it seems they have, is there a parlament or not, monarch is just like president if there is strong parlament in the country.

Middle eastern like setting?

@Misticsan Well, to be fair, it's not put as democracy itself is bad. Just that at the start, it might not be the best. Especially during a world war.

It often works better nowadays solely because many of the world's most powerful nations are democratic and can actually help other nations along.

@omegaxis1 I don't think the problem is actually wanting democracy, but HOW it's wanted. I mean, this is not the best moment to try and change your governmental regime.

Plus the actual people involved. An evil dude wanting democracy or an a good queen.

I don't think the author is trying to promote a political ideology in the story, rather, the good guy is just the prince for the plot point.

@deathmailrock @Misticsan @KarmaKyuupin
It is overall a situation where government changes shouldn't be discussed. They are at war, and trying to fight amongst one another about who should be in power rather than taking care of outside threats is a foolish thing.

True enough. For a time, I thought that Dhala and Albion were in a Cold War, officially at peace but fighting in practice through proxies like the Lemurian Company and puppet states. However, chapter 5 states that Albion declared war on Dhala due to the invasion of Adaar. Even if actual battles are limited to the colonies, a revolution could put Albion itself in danger.

Now I'm reminded of how the Spanish troops that were gathered to fight the rebels in their American colonies revolted against the king in 1820. The result was a more democratic, but short-lived revolutionary government and the loss of almost all of Spain's colonial empire. I bet Dhala would have liked something similar to happen to Albion.

Those short wrap ups are a little upsetting. What about the ones pulling the strings and the repercussion? What about the students? Don't just throw us straight into the next nation....
