What was the most effective form of government in history?

Polities with a constitution > polities without a constitution

Caliphate

Canonically Gilgamesh's Babylon.

bourgeois republics

republic

You're going to have to clarify "effective". Economically efficient? Best at protecting human rights? Quick at implementing policies?

Protocivilizational god king societies with an infallible priest caste

imagine seeing the king walking down the street and unironically 100% believing he is god

must have been dope

Magiocracy.

>imagine seeing the king walking down the street
>not carrying your king so the ground does not dirty his divine feet
You are the reason the ideal system failed.

Khanate.

Serious answer is technocratic guided democracy like the one in Singapore

Unironically the current Chinese Government

rapid economic growth and no opposition when implementing policies by sacrificing lots of human rights

absolute monarchy

Can confirm, while the police are somewhat bearable and overworking is a common problem, it works in creating a economically efficient and life sustaining life

Economically effective?
A corporatocracy(oligarchy of corporations and companies)
Effective at being stable? A police state.
Effective at making sure citizens are healthy/happy/educated? A high tax democracy with good policies like Denmark.
Effective at war? An autocracy like Nazi Germany.
Effective at making memes? A two party democracy
The most effective at everything doesn't exist, there are some hypothetical governments that would work if they could realistically be implemented like Carl Schmitt's Political, , a state ruled by an all knowing robot or my personal favorite - a confederation of small(district sized)autonomous mini nations.

> Effective at war?
> Nazi Germany.

Singapore is one of the most important ports in the world due to its location, also very small. Any kind of government would work just fine there.

Feminism.

Effective as in most bang for the buck. Given resources available to them, Nazis should have been stomped into the curb much earlier.

Yea stfu nigger, government never solves any problems only makes them bearable for the public. Technocracy is shit

t.Singaporean

An autocracy LIKE nazi germany, the USSR would be up there as well, chill out Dimitri

Enlightened absolutism

seconded, until an asshat steps in

Actually it would be communism but because it has never been fully achieved I'll go with Marxist-Leninist socialist states.

Name me any other system that took a country out of extreme poverty and turned them into global superpowers as quickly as the USSR under Lenin and Stalin and China under Mao. Also, both developed powerful armies.

>But muh famines

Marxism-Leninism solved the famine problem in most countries where it was implemented. Russia's last famine (a phenomenon which occurred frequently for centuries) happened in 1946, and it was mostly caused by WW2.

Wrong, it's National Socialism ;)

National Socialism got utterly BTFO by a Marxist-Leninist country.

The Nazis and Japanese fought way above their weight class.

A fascist nation with a USA tier resource and manpower base would dominate the world by next Tuesday.

>using hereditary succession

A king who without autocracy is no king.

This, anyone who says otherwise is literally ignoring the fact that almost all of the most powerful nations have this type of government to some degree

Effective at what?

On the other hand, Nazi Germany was only taken down because three of the strongest military and economic powers of the time devoted most of their resources to fighting Nazi Germany.

Venetian-style aristocratic elective monarchy in terms of a single regime remaining intact and prosperous for the longest period of time.

No, they just had an early edge because they ramped up military production while the rest of the world was focusing on civilian industrial investments, so when they started blindsiding people with it they were doing well, but once the allies switched over to a war time footing the Nazis were thoroughly fucked.

>devoted most of their resources to fighting Nazi Germany.
The inevitable diplomatic failure of deficit financed expansionary empires. Eventually the rest of the world gets sick of your shit.

Calling them "Republics" is squirrelly because it doesn't enunciate on the fact that modern Representational Democracies are in fact a syncretic political doctrine which combines a monarchy, republic, and democracy in a way where the strengths of one are overcoming the weaknesses of the other.

Republic is rule by committee of powerful property owners. Representational Democracy is rule by popularly elected "professional lawmakers" to vote on their constituent's behalf.

the egyptian empire - longest standing empire in history

Tribalism.

Liberal democracy

Depends on the society you want to govern and the goals you want it to achieve
No government is "the best" in isolation

*Uruk

Monarchy/Despotism

It was also the worst, depending on who had the sceptre

Autocratic Capitalism

>A high tax democracy with good policies like Denmark.

That depends on the amount of people living in that country. Those "good" policies would not scale well if implemented in say the U.S.
