I've read this whole thread, and I can't believe no one else has made the connection yet, so I'm gonna do it:
Wanna know what happens? Watch the Star Wars saga. Palpatine took control of the Senate based on a vote of No Confidence in the previous Chancellor, Vellorum.
Not long after, Palpatine took TOTAL control of the Senate due to the increasing separatist threat...unleashed the newly created Grand Army of the Republic. This is your clue to watch out for a massive surge in Mounty activity in the near future, folks.
Then, in an unprecedented move, Palpatine not only failed to relinquish Supreme Command of said Army, but disbanded the Senate, becoming the Emperor, and unleashing all hell. He was eventually murdered by his second in command, whose son then killed him, sold the story to George Lucas, who then turned it into a movie franchise based on true events...
The only reason you don't see this in our own history books it because it happened...
LONG AGO...
...IN A GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY.
I just couldn't help myself.xxx
