Not to piss in the lemonade, but some places still have the divine right of kings.

The point is that societies could progress past it, that it's not inescapable.

So the fact that there are still absolute monarchies does not invalidate that societies that are better are possible, like most of our societies today.

Every empire seems unassailable and eternal, until it doesn't. The USSR seemed like it will last beyond our lifetimes, until it didn't.
