    But only after massive changes that usually but not always required massive amount of wars and/or societal collapse. A prime example is France wherein the Ancien Regime was only truly ended by the double tapping that was the French revolution and Napoleonic era, hell even the fucking Russian empire was more open to change than the Kingdom of France.
