My views on monarchism are varied.
I lean towards abolishing them all and finding them outdated. Saudi Arabia is an absolute monarchy and a very repressive country that influences the world in some pretty negative ways.
Limited to figurehead monarchies are more tolerable. The Emperor of Japan seems entirely ceremonial and a symbol of the people. He doesn't seem capable of doing his nation or the world any meaningful harm. The worst part would be the tens of billions of yen or so a year the taxpayers provide to maintain the monarchy. And that is one of the biggest arguments for abolishing monarchies.
Charles III's coronation cost a staggering 72 million pounds or about 90.7 million USD.
