We don't even have a full constitution. What happens to the Monarchy doesn't concern me I just want a constitution.

In the Netherlands the government consists of all ministers + the King. And all government decisions and all laws have to be signed by 1 minister + the King. To the outside it's one entity. And they speak as one. But the ministers represent the government in political affairs. The King usually advises the ministers. And the ministers have to take responsibility for everything the King does.
1 minister + the King also appoint all ministers, all judges, prosecutors, city mayors, etc. And the King appoints the advisors to the government and parliament (the council of state). And the King is the chairman of the supreme court, a position he delegates to someone else. The King can also fire all ministers, the senate and the parliament.
Our national holiday is his birthday. The anthem is about his ancestors. Our national color Orange is his last name.
The law does not apply to the King. And insulting him gets you thrown into jail. And journalists posting non-work related pics also get in trouble.
That basically sums everything up.

Doesn't he also own huge parts of Shell? Finding this stuff out was just as weird as finding out the south korean government was run by shamans
Camden Carter
His grandma used to own 25% of Shell.
But it's not known what the current situation is, because he does not pay taxes. And he does not have to report anything. And he cannot be investigated.

How does something like this happen in a western European democracy? Here the king is only allowed to wave and smile and party. I know every country has lizard people, but usually not with a glowing title literally meaning "sole ruler" (monarch)
Austin Campbell
Don't forget the Bourbon branche in India. Those fuckers probably can't even speak French (or very badly).

>be part of the Holy Roman Empire
>eventually fall under Austrian/Spanish rule due to whatever reason
>decide to kick them out because they are catholics and become a republic
>7 Netherlands unite into one country
>Holland tries to draw all power to itself
>so everyone constantly picks the House of Orange as rulers of the republic, because they are descendants of our george washington (they led the liberation of this country) and are trusted to balance the interests of all provinces
>250 years later napoleon invades
>he becomes emperor
>kick napoleon out
>House of Orange takes his place as King
>they have absolute power
>they make a few fuck ups, like firing the parliament a bunch of times
>eventually decide to reduce the power of the King
>all decisions have now be signed by 1 minister plus the King
>the ministers take responsibility for the government and the King, especially for political affairs, while the King gains absolute immunity.
>King agrees
Thats what happened.
Jaxon Robinson
Yeah but this sounds like it only leads up to somewhere around 1900, nobody during the last 100 years questioned why you should have a guy with legal immunity against corruption charges leading the country?
Christopher King
And the theory is that the ministers have to explain themselves to the people and short term interest (the parliament) and to the state and long term interests (the King).
Easton Evans
What corruption charges? Hes above the law.
And if he for example murders someone then the parliament will hold a minister responsible, who will then step down as a scapegoat.
Noah Evans
Very comfy
Kayden Stewart
Although only the King can fire a minister..

You have a constitution, it’s just made up of hundreds of years of documents and conventions. Anyway, constitutions are gay since the real constitution is always invisible
Luis Gutierrez
I mean in theory. Why do you let one guy be above the law?
Brayden Martinez
luv me turning point memes
simple as
Landon Martinez
That was the condition of the monarchy giving up absolute power.
Blake Reyes
Its written in our constitution and you cannot change the constitution without 67% of the votes in parliament and senate, the government agreeing, the king agreeing. And then firing the parliament and senate. And then holding reelections. And then the new parliament, senate, king and government agreeing again.
So you have to be pretty confident in your proposal.
Elijah Watson
On paper it’s because you can’t go higher in the justice system, there is no authority to subject the monarch to since justice is administered in the sovereign’s name (republics appeal to more abstract concepts rather than a monarch’s authority). Here the Queen also can’t be prosecuted, it’s just that leftist cucks took away the last constitutional role for your king back in the 70s or something.
Owen Gonzalez
It was the greatest, the most based.
Sincerly all other monarchies in Europe are mockeries.

we never had one

>it’s just made up of hundreds of years of documents and conventions.
wrong
if that was true, fundemental concepts like the right to gun ownership and common land would still exist
these bill of rights that have been written over the centuries are not in stone, they can be overturned by the parliamentarians.
