    I will gladly latch onto the name.

    Also it’s largely ceremonial but also primary serves a purpose. How odd, is it ceremony or function.

    What it is, is a functionally hereditary title being passed down 8 generations of a family. And it’s not even representing all Māori because not everyone was stupid enough to want a monarch.

    Hundreds of millions fought and died for thousands of years against monarchs all over the globe. And here’s you lot coming along championing the birth of a new one because it’s not as powerful today.
