Ni! Dolboyob. Monarchy attempts were Federation of Canada which failed, the Dominion of Canada which too crapped out.
You could have a revolution. Pretty sure the Brits would respond by saying "Oh. . . okay. Later."

(Bloomberg) — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s teenage daughter appears to have entered a phase of being designated as his successor, South Korea’s National Intelligence Service told lawmakers, offering Seoul’s clearest assessment yet that a fourth generation of the Kim family dynasty is in the making.
In a closed-door briefing to parliament, the NIS said the girl — often referred to as Ju Ae by South Korean officials — has increasingly assumed a symbolic and political role consistent with succession training. The agency cited her repeated public appearances at key military events and her prominent positioning alongside her father during on-site inspections.
“In the past, Kim Ju Ae was described as being ‘in successor training,’ but notably today the NIS used the term ‘stage of being designated as successor,’” lawmaker Lee Seong-kweun, who attended the briefing, told reporters Thursday.
Lawmakers were told that the daughter’s protocol treatment, frequency of appearances and portrayal in state media point to structured preparation. That has included her attendance at military events such as Air Force Day celebrations as well as a visit to the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun — a symbol of hereditary succession. Both events were covered extensively by the Korean Central News Agency.
Seoul’s spy agency also cited instances in which she appeared to express views on policy initiatives during on-site inspections. Taken together, the NIS assessed that she has entered the stage of having been designated as successor.
The assessment builds on a steady stream of state media coverage over the past two years showing the daughter accompanying her father to intercontinental ballistic missile launches, military parades and meetings with senior defence officials.
Last year, Ju Ae — then believed to be about 12 or 13 — made a surprise trip to China with her father in what was seen as her first international appearance, intensifying speculation that she was being groomed as Kim’s eventual successor. She arrived aboard a bulletproof train to attend a military parade in Beijing, emerging just behind her father in a dark jacket with a navy ribbon in her hair.
While Kim attended the parade, his daughter wasn’t pictured at that venue in state media broadcasts.
The prospect of a female successor would mark a historic shift in North Korea’s deeply patriarchal political system, although the regime’s opaque inner workings make definitive conclusions difficult. Kim Jong Un himself was publicly confirmed as heir apparent only shortly before the death of his father, Kim Jong Il, in 2011.
Still, the NIS assessment suggests Seoul believes the grooming process has advanced beyond symbolic exposure to a more deliberate phase.
North Korea has been ruled by the Kim family since its founding in the 1940s. Ju Ae is believed to be one of two or possibly three children of Kim and his wife, Ri Sol Ju. No other children have been publicly confirmed by Pyongyang.
The agency said it will closely monitor whether she attends the Workers’ Party Congress later this month, the level of protocol accorded to her, the use of symbolic titles or her real name, and any potential revisions to Workers’ Party rules that could signal succession.
If borne out, the move would underscore the durability of the Kim family’s dynastic rule and signal Kim Jong Un’s confidence in consolidating power more than a decade after taking office in his late 20s and carrying out sweeping purges of potential rivals.

House Republicans in the United States are seemingly turning on one of their own after calling for Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales to resign over an alleged affair with an aide who later committed suicide.
Since 2021, Gonzales, a Republican and married father of six children, has represented Texas’ 23rd district. He allegedly sent sexually explicit texts to his then aide, Regina Santos-Aviles, who later took her own life.
The texts were revealed by her widower, Adrian Aviles, and were published on Monday by the San Antonio Express-News.
Which Republicans called for resignation?
A handful of Gonzales’ Republican colleagues have called for him to resign.
Among them are Colorado’s Lauren Boebert and South Carolina’s Nancy Mace, per Newsweek.
“RESIGN,” Boebert wrote on X.
“The allegations against Congressman Tony Gonzales are deeply disturbing…,” said Mace. “Congressman Gonzales must address these allegations and resign.”
Former Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene agreed with Mace, replying under her post: “I completely agree!!”
Gonzales denies affair
Prior to the texts emerging, Gonzales took to X to say he was being “blackmailed” over the allegations, while sharing a screenshot of an email from Aviles’s attorney, Robert Barrera. Barrera has denied the allegation, Newsweek reported.
Gonzales appeared to deny the alleged affair during an appearance at the Texas Tribune Festival last November. At the time, he said: “The rumours are completely untruthful, and Regina’s family has asked for privacy.”
Santos-Aviles, 35, died on Sept. 14, 2025, after setting herself on fire outside her Uvalde, Texas home. The Bexar County Medical Examiner ruled her death a suicide.
‘A sexy pic’
Santos-Aviles worked for Gonzales from November 2021 until her death in September 2025.
In one text from April 2025 published by the Express News, Aviles-Santos wrote:”I had [an] affair with our boss and I’m fine.”
In a series of texts from March 2024, Gonzales allegedly asked his aide for “a sexy pic” which she shot down.
“I’m just such a visual person,” Gonzales allegedly wrote.
Other texts reportedly showed Santos-Aviles telling her boss he was “going too far”, including one message from Gonzales asking her about her “favourite position”.
“This is going too far boss. So how long have you thought I was this hot?” the woman allegedly sent Gonzales.
Adrian Aviles told the Express-News the messages Gonzales sent were “very sexual in nature” and that Gonzales “abused his power” through his involvement with Santos-Aviles.
Santos-Aviles’ widow added, “he should have held himself to a higher standard as a congressional leader.”
Gonzales praised late aide
During a recent interview with CBS News, Gonzales described Santos-Aviles as a “kind soul who devoted her life to making the community a better place.”
“Her efforts led to improvements in school safety, health care, and rural water like never before,” he said, while also stating he would not “engage in these personal smears and instead remain focused on helping President Trump secure the border and improve the lives of all Texans.”
When asked about the matter on Monday, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson said he endorsed Gonzales before the allegations emerged and noted they are “obviously very serious.”
“I’ve spoken with him and told him he’s got to address that in an appropriate way with his constituents. So, it’s too early for anybody to prejudge any of that, but we’ll see how it develops,” said Johnson.
Gonzales is currently running for a fourth term, with the Republican primary set for March 3.
