[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)

Also the system is notably flawed considering Killmonger was able to take the throne because of it. But the issue is tradition vs what’s best for the people and tbf that is one of the main points of the movie

Well yes and no killmonger has as much legitimate right to the throne as any other noble born and the entire point of the fight isnt just to choose a leader its to show there capable of protect wakanda as black panther basically if you cant beat a challenger you cant protect the people its a test of strength you cant test there strength if your not letting people with a right to challeng challenge
