The King of Cambodia and the SRACs

No time in monarchical history is boring. Monarchies are very weird. But there's that period in history where they just couldn't keep up with the pace of social change everywhere, either backwards or forwards. So this all comes to a head in June of 1952 when the King aged 30 decides it's time for him to jump into politics for the first time. See how Nick calls up French troops, Moroccans, actually. In the middle of the night on June 9th, he dissolves the government, assumes emergency powers and declares himself prime minister.
