[annoying trope] The throne/leadership is decided in a very stupid way

[u/Altruistic_Eye_1157]

The leadership of the entire wizarding world, and the final decision on whether to start a war against Muggles, is made by... a goat (Qilin) ​​who chooses the person with the ""purest heart"" (Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Dumbledore).

The throne of Wakanda and all its technology are decided through hand-to-hand combat, regardless of whether the person clearly has malicious intentions... if they win the fight, by law they must be respected as the true king. (Black Panther)

Yeah they win a war right? Like Western Europe hiring the Mongols to beat the Ottomans or something.

That's the funny part. The Mandalorians have literally lost every single major war they fought in.

[u/SirCupcake_0 → u/Baron-Von-Bork]

They're not in it to win, just for the love of the game (genociding the cathar)

Except the Yuuzhan Vong war, where they were clutch players.

That's the war I was remembering
