"TIL that Norway, after gaining independence from Sweden in 1905, offered the throne to Prince Carl of Denmark - but he refused to accept unless the people voted for a monarchy over a republic. 79% said yes, and he became King Haakon VII, the only known king ever to be elected by popular vote."

#10 - The danish queen Margrethe 2 was elected indirectly too. When it was clear that the danish King were not able to have a son around 1950, the throne had by then have to go to a cousin of the king when he passed, as only males could become ruler. By popular vote in 1953, the laws on this was changed so females could become ruler. As Margrete by then was the eldest daughter of the king, it was clear that she would become ruler and she was indirectly elected for that.... She became ruling queen in 1972 and stepped down in 2024 after beeing a very popular ruler for 52 years.....

#34 Just Asians with small dicks, can't change that.
#37 It's just the lower end of the bell curve. The upper end are the highly intellectual, so there obviously also must be an opposite of that.
