The Vedic way is that governance and compliance systems of every kind , for the myriads of different communities and peoples within them ,were carefully measured up against the Vedas , the Artha sastras are particularly applicable to just and political affairs of many kinds . The application , implications, and impacts on individuals and different societies were considered by an intelligentsia who were well versed in the sciences of mind , matter, and consciousness and could clearly see the correct Vedic usages  according to time place and circumstance.
Currently, government ministers across the globe are not at all aligned with the clear realities of any objective sciences that are connected to mind , matter, and consciousness. Neither are their ” expert advisors ” they  seek advice from . Rather the political classes and their political advisors are products of a system that has been bulldozed and compressed by a modern education system stemming from scientific materialism and Darwinian hypothesis . This means the intelligentsia have been demoted and occasionally given a cursory glance , but not taken seriously. The third class unthinking and uneducated businessman is ruling  the world . Money , exploitative psychological messaging , encroachment, and killing is the trademark of these third class men .
Thus, the blind and ignorant are most definitely leading the blind in world affairs, and their world view is perverse. We can not expect to have clear thinking or any kind of wisdom or directions given to us by those who are in ignorance themselves of the all important understanding of the scientific workings of mind , matter, and consciousness . This kind of knowledge is a fundamental part of peace individually and collectively.  The various branches of knowledge in world affairs and that are essential are all relatable and can not be separated or neglected  in society,  are within the Vedas , but they are harmonized and combined in progressive steps for both social and spiritual mobility. the intelligentsia do just that with applications.
Predominately, unfortunately, we live in a world controled by fools and rascals, scientific materialism, and Darwinian hypothesis , has become the leading light , or unthinking religionists apply theologically driven cultures in perverse and political ways , they merely pay lip services to God .

In Vedic culture, the autocratic systems were in place not to dominate people but rather to serve and help with their every need. A lifetime, and a  saintly person as a leader is a good thing .
There are many examples of Autocrat’s being removed or having to take a humble position if they failed to carry out duties correctly contained within the Vedas .
In the case of Lord Ramachandra, it was perceived, although wrongley, that Lord Ramachandra acted incorrectly in taking Sita back after She was kidnapped. The general people thought she had been polluted by Ravana .
To satisfy the “mob,” Lord Ramachandra banished his wife , and thus both Rama and Sita underwent great personal difficulties as an example for future leaders and of the standards and duties they would have to adopt , sacrificing  everything for the sake of their citizens. Modern equivalents can not be found , but rather quite the opposite.

You can not change the course of history, but if you want to introduce justice , peace, and goodwill and Divinity favours your endeavours , those endeavours and their consequences become a part of history.
Nothing is totally inevitable , although the expression in the material world “as sure as death” is factual . Free will , free expression, and communication with the absolute good is forever to be accepted,  and grace and intelligence will flow from Him . The Supreme Autocrat’s superior and all good counsel in all affairs are contained in theological texts and primarily in the hearts of his representatives who are well wishers of all , the are pure hearted and come from all cultures.
