Loyalty and Fealty Servant 08/08/2019 (Thu) 04:58:29 [Preview] No. 55
Hi /monarchy/,

Here is a question that will hopefully tide us over while we're holed up here in the bunker. I've been meaning to make a thread on it for a while.
How far does loyalty to one's Sovereign extend? If someone is born under one Monarch, moves to a country with a different one, and becomes a citizen there, do they still owe any loyalty to their original Sovereign? Or would you say they cannot simply change allegiances or that they would be bound to both?
Would they only owe fealty if they specifically made an oath to their Sovereign? I personally have made an oath to my Queen when I started in my occupation. Am I only bound by this until I leave my occupation or nation, or for the rest of my life?
I feel that I am bound for life, though I was always partial to the Monarchy even as a child, so I don't know if this is just sentimentality. On the other hand I would want to avoid being overly legalistic about it giving loyalty too many timelines and boundaries.
A few years ago in my country, the courts ruled to allow new citizens to immediately recant the Oath of Allegiance they just made to become a citizen. What do you think of this?

Sounds like a personal resolve. The loyalist spirit maintains a somewhat sanguine bond with their monarch. I doubt anyone else would care, but origin does matter.

Oath is an oath.
>A few years ago in my country, the courts ruled to allow new citizens to immediately recant the Oath of Allegiance they just made to become a citizen. What do you think of this?
Not surprised. They value revolution and destruction.

I tend to agree. Loyalty is something that should be intensely personal. I don't think enough is being done to instill loyalty in new citizens and generations or even basic education on why we have a monarch or their role in the state. The fact that someone wants to immediately revoke their oath should be a huge red flag that this is lacking in whatever program they're going through, but I shouldn't be surprised. Most are indifferent to the whole thing today. The only enthusiasm for the Royal Family you can expect here today is a more tabloid celebrity type obsession.
