What matters more? the rule or the ruler?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If we did not have a sound rule like this,
did it matter how the ruler looked like?
--------------------------------------
As this is the rule,
who cares if Sparta's oligarchy looked closer to democracy and Persians' monarchy closer to dictatorship?

Image from: The great debater movie"James Farmer Jr.: In Texas they lynch Negroes... What was this Negro's crime that he should be hung without trial in a dark forest filled with fog... No matter what he did, the mob was the criminal. But the law did nothing. Just left us wondering, "Why?" My opponent says nothing that erodes the rule of law can be moral. But there is no rule of law in the Jim Crow south. ...not when we are lynched. St Augustine said, "An unjust law is no law at all." Which means I have a right, even a duty to resist. With violence or civil disobedience. You should pray I choose the latter." from the great debater movie
