But to change the Greek gov, you need to change the PEOPLE of Greece. The people here vote for people who can give to their kids a good place in Public Services - that's why we have so many of them and that's why our gov sucks. Unfortunately, this happened somehow differently in Byzantium - powerful people had enough power to remove an emperor and put another one that would make their lives better. But these emperors were stupid, which lead to financial disaster and destruction from the Franks, the Seljuqs and the Ottomans.
