"The regime has been unstable for years because it relied on a single person. As long as the Dark Lord was still alive, we knew who was in charge. Once it became clear that he wasn't going to live forever despite what he claimed, there was no clear leader to take over. The problem with the way our society has been set up is we can't rely on a single person. Not only is that too much responsibility to place on the shoulders of one person, Dark Lord or not, it's not sustainable. Problems get ignored. Issues fall through the cracks."
