Yes, I do, as a matter of fact. Here's the question: does that thread address where the idea of 'natural' rulerships come from? I'm reading through the thread, but it's gotten a bit long and I just thought I'd ask first before devoting hours to it. The idea of what is or isn't considered 'natural' i...
