Question

What impression would you form of a state where the King was 'just and placid'?

Answer 1

ANSWER :

It was a kingdom of fools. No one in the state has any sense. The king wanted to hang someone because his crown had hit against the arch and fallen down. The king wanted to consult a wise man. The ministers brought a man to the king. He said that the real culprit was the arch and must be hanged. The king allows himself to be hanged because no other man is tall enough to fit the noose. The king  is dead but the ministers make declarations in the name of the king . An idiot says that a melon should be the ruler of the state. The ministers crown a melon and set it down on the Throne. Thus we see that it was truly a Kingdom of all fools.

Answer 2

The State where the king was just and placid’ seems to be a backward region full
of ignorant fools and ruled by a whimsical king. The king considers himself to be the custodian of people and gets an arch erected for their spiritual upliftment. The king’s word is a command and unwritten law. The whole process of changing judgement on the appeals of the victims appears as a mock-trial. The Ministers and Councillors seems to be selfish. They advise the king to serve their own ends, though they appear to flatter the king and seem dedicated to the state. The common people are uneducated and ignorant fools. They need mental as well as spiritual upliftment. They are fun loving. In their quest for fun, they can cross all limits. If deprived of fun, the unruly mob can rebel against the crown. They do not bother whether the king is a man or a melon. They want there personal freedom, free business and peaceful lives.
