I am the ruler of a country, as were my father, grandfather, and great-

grandfather. My family has ruled the same country for over 400 years. The

citizens of my country do not vote for who will be their leader. They do not

even like my family, but they accept us because the right to rule has been

passed down from one generation to the next.
