So I've recently been thinking about how the abolition of the British monarchy would affect how we think of monarchy in the anglophone world. I'm not really interested in how the monarchy is abolished, but rather how we would perceive monarchies in other nations and how it would be portrayed in fiction.
Would this change how monarchy is portrayed in fantasy for example? Would we see writers give a more varied portrayal of pre-modern government, perhaps taking inspiration from the Italian city states or the Dutch Republic when constructing fictional countries?
Would monarchy in general be seen as backwards or outdated by the general public?
