Yes,you are right.But when the monarch is there and functioning,then he is regarded as real monarch.That happened before:a king is regarded as a real king,but when he is disliked,be3cause of not functioning,he is nothing afterwards. Yours sincerelly: --Previous Message--
Dear reader;
I know the Rote and Savu islands near Timor.The monarchs there are respected as monarchs,although some of the more little principalities on Rote just begin with a couple of thousand inhabitants.
When he is functioning good he is regarded as a real monarch and respected as symbol of their own people government system.But when he is no good,he is just chased away as a dog.
When you see the Lavelua of Uvea(King of Wallis),he is treated by his people as areal king.
Different from a chief of an Indian tribe in USA.
Okay:total of inhabitants of Wallis- and Futuna islands are just 14.000 locally and 15.000 outside the area.That is compared with UK of Great Britain not very much,but you can consider it,that he is here also a sort of father of his people.If you are a father of 19.000 people(also the outside people still keep contact with their homeland and most regard the local king of their area really as their king),you really can be seen as a king.That was before:a king was a father of his people and a wise king should be such a person.Really.
In Europe it is a bit changed,but always as a monarch go back to your duty roots.
