Gondor had like 30 Kings before that ...
Gondor has no ~~pants~~ king, Gondor needs no king.
I don't think that's true, is it? I think Gondor had a small handful of kings before the line was broken and had a long string of stewards. Didn't Isildur sail from Numenor and establish Gondor himself? So, one single king, right?
No, isildurs nephew led the line of kings in gondor for two thousand years before the plague and civil war weakened gondor and it ended when the witch king nazgul killed the last king of gondor.
So did France but they figured out how to break the cycle (eventually)
It's interesting how they went back to a monarch I think three times
