Legendary Kingdom Proclaimed

The will of the king carries his entire people forth.

The Marcomanni chose their kings based on nobility and military commanders based on valour. Neither of these two men ruled as a dictator however, as the kings did not have absolute, arbitrary power, and the commanders led by example, not by authority. Rome was content to support oligarchies that occasionally appeared among the Germanic peoples in order to prevent the establishment of strong states, but ancient kingship endured nonetheless. The king of noble birth was considered to be descended from divine royal ancestors, which were honoured for generations. On the other hand, a commander of warriors had to fight to achieve their status. A heroic triumph served as proof that a warrior was suitable to lead other men into battle. Under some circumstances, such a leader could found a new royal family, even if they had not been part of the nobility beforehand. A reiks with both the aspect of a nobleman and a war leader often attained legendary status among the local tribes - as great as the mighty Arminius or even the heroic Geat king of legend, Beowulf.
