In the world of today most countries have a president or prime minister in the role a king would have took in the days of yore- the actual leader of the nation.
In the case of constitutional monarchies....hmm....yeah not much we can do there.
But how could we make republics cooler? Why by making them monarchies of course!

How could we get elected monarchies popping up?
No, don't be a smart arse, I don't mean like the Holy Roman Empire or Denmark of distant past. I mean a system where the leader pretty much is just a president in the modern conventional (and democratic) sense but when he is elected he is also crowned as a king and has all of the pomp and ceremony that goes with this (including of course, a crown).
