Except for the Black Plague and the Golden Horde, all of Europe’s worst calamities occurred in the last 200 years or so. And all of them can be traced back to the abolition of three monarchies: the French, the Russian, and the German.
Liberalism rose like a wight from the tomb of the House of Bourbons. Communism’s first victim was the House of Romanov. And fascism was born from the ashes of the House of Hohenzollern. (We, of course, lit the match.)
What’s more, the Kingdom of France stood from 987 to 1792, or for about eight centuries. In the last two hundred years, the French have enjoyed five republics, two empires, a Bourbon restoration, the July Monarchy, and the Nazi-backed Régime de Vichy. Meanwhile, when Russia’s tsardom was abolished in 1917, it was only 370 years old—the bloom of its youth, as monarchies go. Its successor, the Soviet Union, lasted for seventy years: a ripe old age for a republic.
And of all the great atrocities that have wracked in the modern world, only one was perpetrated by a monarchy: the Armenian genocide. All the others were committed by republics in China, Russia, Germany, Cambodia, and Rwanda.
