>German Prince Heinrich XIII Reuss of Greiz was arrested this morning suspected of planning a coup d'état in Germany with at least 24 other people
>The plan was to attack the German parliament in Berlin and insert the Prince as new head of state, King/Emperor of Germany
>The action is ongoing. Military not involved but an armed coup was planned. Weapons have been confirmed seized by the police. 3000 police officers have arrested people in Germany associated with a right-wing group
As of now it's unknown how many were involved in total, what the plan of this coup was, its likelihood of succeeding had they gone undetected, and how it was discovered.
Looking up his name turned up no obvious results other than this news, and apparently there was a Prince Heinrich XIII Reuss of Greiz 200 years ago so he may not be a legitimate prince (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinrich_XIII%2C_Prince_Reuss_of_Greiz).
Note that Greiz was an extremely small state in Germany so even if he had formal power, this is roughly equivalent to the mayor of Wichita, Kansas planning to coup the U.S. government.

>BERLIN, Dec 7 (Reuters) - Heinrich XIII Prince Reuss is one of the last descendents of a dynasty that once ruled over swathes of eastern Germany. He is suspected of hoping to become the country's new leader in a violent coup to overthrow the democratic order.
>The 71-year-old was one of 25 members and supporters of a far-right group planning the alleged putsch who were arrested early on Wednesday in nationwide raids, according to the authorities.
>The real estate developer has for years publicly advocated the theory life was better worldwide under monarchy. He stems from House of Reuss, which for centuries ruled over parts of present-day Thueringen state until Germany's 1918 revolution that led to the establishment of the Weimar Republic.
>He said in a 2019 speech to the World Web Forum - which describes itself as bringing together progressive minds to empower positive radical change - that in the principality of Reuss people led "happy lives" because the tax rate was just 10% and the structures were "straightforward and transparent".
>"If things didn’t work well, you just went to the prince," Heinrich said. "Who are you supposed to turn to today? Your parliamentarian, the local, federal or EU level? Good luck!"
>In the speech, peppered with anti-Semitic conspiracies, he said Germany had been a vassal state government since World War Two and needed to regain its sovereignty through a peace deal.
>He said monarchies worldwide including that of France had been overthrown due to the meddling of foreign powers which wanted to establish corporate structures in the pursuit of profit. The people had suffered as a result, he said.
>Prosecutors said on Wednesday Heinrich had reached out to representatives of Russia, whom the group saw as its central contact for establishing its new order. They said there was no evidence the representatives had reacted positively to the request. The Kremlin said there could be no question of any Russian involvement in the alleged plot.
>The Reuss dynasty named all its male children Heinrich or Henry after the end of the 12th century in honour of Henry IV, the Holy Roman Emperor, who bequeathed them the estates of Weida and Gera, now towns in Thueringen state.
>While officially, there are no princes and princesses any more in Germany, some descendents like Heinrich have continued to use the title. He had named his real estate and financial services company, based in Frankfurt, the "Buero Prinz Reuss".
>The House of Reuss, currently headed by Heinrich XIV who lives in Austria, has however previously distanced itself from Heinrich XIII, calling him a confused man peddling conspiracy theories, according to local media.

How the fuck did Isayama do it again?
I still don't trust Monarchists.
In a democracy you can vote for your leaders. Those who are still Prince or King or Lord on paper can still become politicians, no? So why do they so rarely win elections?

This reminds me of the KKK which has perhaps 350 members from which 100 are feds, 200 are snitches, and the remaining 50 are morons.

Because democracy favors power-hungry sociopaths with superficial charisma and connections, not random dickheads with meaningless titles.

Princes and Kings are the descendants of sociopaths who sent millions to die in war games against other nations over thousands of years. Sometimes these wars lasted hundreds of years. Pretty sure they have more sociopathy bred into them than some astroturfed celebrity.
