Lol, capitalist education system at work.
Hurdur. Name a period in time where people weren't ruled. Either in a tribe or in an empire there is a leader or group of leaders in charge. There has never been a time when that isn't the case. People naturally create governing hierarchies.
You know there is a difference between wise people being listened to because of experience or just because it's been smart and suggesting rules everyone then agrees on and a feudal lord or class thereof that are exploiting a poorer majority with threats of violence and living a lavish lifestyle. There are still existing tribes in Asia or Amazonas that don't even have words for mine and yours because the concept of owning is so foreign to them. Everything is shared. To say that they are being ruled comparably to medieval and modern systems just doesn't make sense.
