While the common saying is "Igbo enwe eze" which translates to "Igbo have no king," historically, some Igbo communities did have kings, particularly in areas like the Nri kingdom, and the title for a king in Igbo is "Eze"; however, the Igbo society as a whole is often described as having a more decentralized power structure with strong emphasis on communal decision-making, not resembling a traditional monarchy in many parts of Igboland.
"Igbo enwe eze":This proverb is widely used to signify that the Igbo people did not have a centralized kingship system across all Igbo communities.
Existence of kings in some areas:Certain Igbo groups, like the Nri people, had a well-established kingship with a ruler called the "Eze Nri" who held significant ritual power.
Decentralized power structure:Most Igbo communities had a system of leadership based on councils of elders, where power was distributed more evenly rather than residing solely with a single king.
After years of experimentation, the kingship system has come to stay in Igboland. Most Igbo communities now have their own kings(Traditional Rulers), who preside over their traditional and cultural affairs.

[Oriana Fallaci:] Maestà, lei è il monarca che ha regnato più a lungo tra quelli che oggi sono rimasti sul trono. E, in un’epoca che ha visto la caduta rovinosa di tanti re, lei è l’unico monarca assoluto. Le capita mai di sentirsi solo in un mondo così diverso dal mondo in cui crebbe? [Hailé Selassié:] Noi riteniamo che il mondo non sia affatto cambiato. Noi riteniamo che questi cambiamenti non abbiano cambiato nulla. Non vediamo nemmeno differenze tra repubblica e monarchia: a Noi sembrano due modi sostanzialmente uguali di governare un popolo. Avanti, Ci dica: qual è la differenza tra repubblica e monarchia? [D] Veramente, Maestà… Ecco, a Noi… voglio dire… a me sembra d’aver capito che nelle repubbliche dove esiste la democrazia il capo viene eletto. Nelle monarchie invece no. [R] Non vediamo la differenza. [D] Non importa, Maestà. Cosa pensa della democrazia? [R] Democrazia, repubblica: cosa vogliono dire queste parole? Cos’hanno cambiato nel mondo? Gli uomini sono forse diventati più bravi, più leali, più buoni? Il popolo è forse più felice? Tutto continua come prima, come sempre. Illusioni, illusioni. E poi bisogna vedere gli interessi di un popolo, prima di sovvertire con le parole. A volte la democrazia è necessaria e Noi pensiamo che alcuni popoli africani possano adottarla. Ma altre volta essa è un danno, un errore.

Intervista rilasciata dall'imperatore d'Etiopia Hailé Selassié nel giugno del 1972, raccolta in:

Both of these actors are unbelievably great. Armin Shimerman deserves 20 Emmy awards for his work on DS9.

Thinking about Wukong and Alkebu-lan's dynamic during her time as Marshal Ma is so funny to me. Cause the baboon really strove to keep things strictly professional between them, meanwhile the ever impulsive monkey king was low-key annoyed that this old monkey kept rejecting his invites to parties/adventures and avoiding having private conversations with him.
Truly it was an unstoppable force meets an immovable object kind of scenario.
#little rabbit speaks (ooc)#Marshal ma @ Wukong who entered her treehouse: And what is it my Negus wishes of me today?#Wukong trying to act cute: Can't I ever just visit you for pleasure instead? <3#Marshal ma: Honestly absolutely not.#Wukong: >:/
