1.
King life is known for its bountiful snacks.
2.
And opportunities to celebrate yourself in all of your kingly glory!
3.
A king chooses only the most trusted scholars for his inner circle.
4.
Kings can also hire and commission music for their courts.
5.
Or issue frivolous decrees.
6.
But they also have to oversee things like the criminal justice system.
7.
Fortunately, most aspiring kings are gentle.
8.
And deeply committed to the pursuit of truth in their kingdoms.
9.
Kings must have the cunning to strategically disempower rival nations.
10.
But there's fun stuff like introducing new holidays on a whim.
11.
A king must hone the leadership skills to rally his people around a cause.
12.
The king must guard against all forms of tyranny.
13.
And alway provide reasonable justifications for his legal decrees.
14.
Kings must balance punishing their subjects with rewarding them.
15.
And commit to principled causes for the good of the kingdom.
16.
If they don't watch themselves, they start mandating excessively cruel restrictions on the peasants.
17.
And devolve into sadistic brutality because of the power they wield.
18.
Such kings would stop at nothing to maintain their stranglehold on power.
19.
And eventually, these power-mad kings watch the world burn just because they can.
