Gotta wait for our residential citation-fu master to dig that one out, then. A necessary but maybe not sufficient condition for the emergence of such governing structures would be that people grow up rejecting zero-sum status games (including) at the level of tribes. The stopgap solution, constitutional monarchy, fails, because,---? So, I'd say in Gladrus, you already had protestants living in close proximity to Catholics for a handful of centuries .. but the clincher v-a-v the asiatic cases eludes me. Ime the asiatic cases the "jesus nut" of the system (sovereign, policemen, yeomen, lawyers, judges, etc) are drawn from a single caste. Pace Manu. Makeup of the branches of government then becomes a emergent symptom. (Compare to western based systems of law.) Who formed the peacekeeping contingent in Gladrus? | |||||||||||||||||

Low B/W ATM, may be a while... In the meantime, note that CH had a catholic/proddy civil war mid-XIX (Glarus* on the protestant side) but as proof of that humanity it was resolved with only ~100 total deaths, both sides included. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonderbund_War#/media/File:Son... compare: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonderbund_War#/media/File:Rel... * for some reason, only cantons with non-human animals on their flags have visible genitalia, so the flag of Glarus is penis-free. EDIT: note also that in "modern federal" CH, almost all the tax burden is canton and commune, not confederation. | |||||||||||||||||
