It feels like the root-cause of the decay and ruin is, by the end of the writing, a total lack of qualifying competence in leadership or government. the bungling amentia is so agonizingly glaring as to lead one to question if it, as the casualties pursuant to the fall of the raj in india or the bengal famine, were an intentional petulance...an act of thoughtless spite after having been made to atone for an atrocity and capitulate to the will of a people that had for so long been subservient to you.

the ruling party embraces fragments of political systems they observe, as a child might mimic their favourite tv cartoon character, but at the end of the day the jangling discord of kleptocratic nihilism drowns out whatever character features the government hopes to project abroad.
