feudal -> balance
systems have to be balanced to last for any duration of time
ruler of britian distributed power to nobles
mid 1600's, example of nobility exercising rights, parliament decided to behead king
moving toward democracy
idea of suffrage starts to propagate, but limited to men who own large plots of land
by late 1800's almost all men can vote
after WWI, women can vote as well
there are still titles of nobility, with a house of lords and a house of commons, still a monarchy, still has colonialism
