Aren’t they not actually a monarchy but just refer to their elected officials as king/queen?
>>
>>218294527
Literally never considered this, nice
>>
>>218294541
why would they elect a preteen girl monarch unless to control her but she seemed to have absolute power
>>
>>218294558
George really didn't think that far ahead hence why you have a case of pre teen being elected as absolute ruler
>>
>>218294541
So like the HRE?

This backwater desert rat would get his blue milk spiked with death sticks the first night on his mom's home planet. He's not a man for politics.

George thought it would be cool and he's right.
>>
>>218294558
Why would she go from queen of a planet to a mere senator? (in a senate with probably 10000 other senators)
Because her term as queen was up.
>>
>>218294758
Dude they made jar jar a senator, nabooans are clearly fucking retards
>>
>>218294784
Put some respect on Senator Binks' name.

>>218294558

>Yellow Jacket
>Dad's yellow ETA Actis 2 Starfighter
>Naboo N1 Starfighter

Oh I'm seeing a pattern here. Wait...

>Yellow hot-rod in American Graffiti
>Lucas's first car was yellow or something

Oh I'm definitely seeing a pattern here...
>>
>>218294572
No there is no reference to any kind of nobility or princedoms to elect from
>>
>>218294558
Yeah, that's not what I would have done, what the fuck
In fact I don't recall getting a single phone call to ask me for my opinion

I dare anyone to show me something Disney has done that is even 1/100th as cool as this ship. I'll wait.

>>218294527
I'm pretty sure a queen of naboo has to be a 14 year old girl and can only be elected for 4 years.
>>
>>218294558
Why can't you accept different cultures have different customs? Keep your cultural imperialism in check.
>>
>>218294997
i don't think the jacket was a reference to it, but anakin's pod racer, the naboo starfighter, the coruscant speeder and anakin's eta 2 were references to the yellow hot rod
>>
>queen

Naboo is a monarchy, but to interact with the galactic senate requires the election of senators. It's like if Kentucky was a kingdom.
>>
>>218294558
The in universe explanation is that the Naboons see 14 year old girls as the ultimate mix of innocence and worldliness and their purity of heart makes them fit to lead
>>
>>218295820
There needed to be more of this sort of stuff in the sequels
Leia should have been done up like that as Queen of the Alderan Fleet or something.
>>
>>218294607
He uses it constantly in vidya.
>>
>>218294572
More like the Crowned Republics like Genoa or Venice. Especially considering the monarchy apparently has term limits and to the other anon's point there's no reference to a 'Duke of Theed' or anything.

George Lucas:

>>218294527
Monarchs are elected over there. Even by Episode 2 they had already chosen a different queen.
Luke has no claim.

More like
George Lucas:
>I intentionally base everything off of WWII or hotrods or other cool mid 20th Century stuff to parallel the serials I based the entire franchise around and create spectacular fight scenes akin to WWII footage
Rian Johnson:
>Hurr durr I haven't ever seen WWII footage or classic serials and films because I'm a pompous retard who only likes modern heckin' subversive slop, classic SW sucks and can only be good if it's just like all those movies I made

Reminder George Lucas wanted Marian to have been 12 when she was supposed to have fucked wit Indie.

>>218294541
They are an elective monarchy, the most cucked and retarded form of government ever to exist, like Poland had.
>>
>>218301110

Did Luke even know how to read?

>>218297511

>>218294570
Yea the retarded Lamborghini peacenik Naboo were able to get bullied by the evil Libertarians Newt GunReagan
>>
>>218294784
The gungans clearly did that to get him to fuck off to Coruscant.
