King Mswati III, on the throne since 1986, is upholding the tradition of his father, King Sobhuza II, who reigned for almost 61 years and is believed to have had more than 60 wives.
Sobhuza scrapped the constitution in 1973 and banned political parties.
King Mswati has shown no enthusiasm for sharing power, but banned opposition parties and trade unions have been vocal in their demands for greater democracy and limits on the king's power.
With peaceful change in neighbouring South Africa and Mozambique, Swaziland has been described as an island of dictatorship in a sea of democracy. A long-awaited constitution, signed by the king in 2005, cemented his rule and maintained a ban on political parties.
Royalists have argued that democracy creates division, and that a monarch is a strong unifying force.
Swaziland is virtually homogenous, most of the population being of the same tribe. Economically, the country is heavily dependent on South Africa, which receives almost half of Swazi exports and supplies nine-tenths of its imports.
Aids is taking a heavy toll with more than 40% of the population believed infected with HIV. Life expectancy has plummeted as a result. Many Swazis live in chronic poverty and food shortages are widespread.
He rules by decree and has been criticised for the heavy-handed treatment of opponents. The king has also been criticised for requesting public money to pay for new palaces, a personal jet and luxury cars. Street protests led him to abandon the aircraft purchase.

Besides HIV is a big problem in alot of 3rd-world Countries, no matter if they have a King or not. The prime reason IMHO is the ideology of having many kids as some kind of "status symbol".
silence said:sorry, but what did i get wrong?
Npl said:let me rephrase the start of the Thread (how I interpret it at least):
geo: Having tons of virgins lining up for you -> its good to be King
you: having sex there is worse than playing russian roulette
me: nah, getting on <b>Virgins</b> is relatively safe.
you: Not true because the king is an ass.

I was never arguing that he is a selfish bastard.
Great, keep picking up on a topic I never argued about (and still wont, no matter how much times you direct questions at me).silence said:would that satisfy you?

Sxotty said:AIDs may be out of control, but people in developed world have no excuse it is not a mystery how a person gets it.
And yes I know some unlucky souls get it through other means, but it is really quite rare.
My point btw is I wish to hell people would use a little common sense. Sorry, but the whole AIDs things frustrates me to no end b/c all these folks are dying and it f*cking sucks, yet it seems people are not willing on a personal level to do what it takes to slow it down...
just to clarify whats being said. All npl is pointing out, is that sex with a virgin is not like playing russian roulett. A virgin is pretty likely not to have aids. Your other points are not being argued.silence said:_YOU_ quoted me first....

As for "it's good to be King", this was shown a few days ago as the Swedish King smashed his car into another car from behind. Since he's immune against prosecution, no action was taken by the police to check if he had any alcohol in the blood or anything. Not that I think he did, but the other guy naturally had to be checked ...
I'm confused... I've read this whole thread and can't see where anyone "gave him any credit" or "praised him." You're arguing with no one and then congratulating yourself on how you're better informed then your opponent. Congratulations, you're better informed then no one!silence said:this guy is fucking joke and anyone giving him any credit should (IMO) go there and live as his subject and _THEN_ post what he thinks about this issue....
Dude, get a clue and what ZoinKs! said.silence said:ohhh, sorry that i am little bit more informed then you guys.... my bad that i read major news sites while drinking coffee and ACCTUALLY know what is going on there...
