He's not, he's a führer, which just means head of the government.

 

I would concur that there is little distinction between either positions.

Also, never going to quote, again.

 

King is when your blood lineage puts you into the position.

Führer is simply climbing up the positions of the government until you become head of the state.

He's not even a "good" führer since:

Spoiler

he wants to kill all the citizens of his country.

By that definition, usurpers wouldn't qualify as being kings.

"the male ruler of an independent state, especially one who inherits the position by right of birth."

Note it not elicitly stating that one MUST be of royal lineage. That being said, it's irrelevant, being that the position of fuhrer could be passed down by blood, thereby matching your definition.

Also, Hitler (the one most often associated with the fuhrer position) obviously held the power to make him a dictator, while retaining the name of fuhrer, at that point, the lines were blurred between fuhrer, dictator, king, and representative. Really, there's an element of subjectivity in this matter. Varying definitions based off of varying perspectives will plague our language.

 

Allow me to rephrase that:

First, or continuation of a lineage.

However a MUST have to be a king is a monarchy and fuhrers aren't part of a monarchy.

 

All the same, I will concede that fuhrers aren't kings. Taking the basic definition into account is probably most important.

 

In the end, the reason I stood my ground so much is because I think Bradley should lose.

I've said it above, but he's not a very good Fuhrer either.

 

Eh, why not. The other guy is winning anyway, and I don't even know him.

@Negi-Springfield

I find it ironically funny when you arguing that King Bradley is not royalty, when the guy opposing him is not royalty either Technically he is a noble & nobles are not royalty....

In fact since he is only a noble I would say he has less in common with royalty then Bradly does at least Bradley is a leader/ruler just like any other king that exists. What has Heivia done that is remotely close to ruling?

Just my 2 cents

anyways Thanks for the chuckles!

That's true, isn't it?

Pfft.

Ah well, Heiviaisstilldank

 

I just can't predict the outcomes. By some means Heivia survives to go on another suicide mission.
