Only the final results can prove whether military autocracies or Parliamentary Governments are more likely - take them for all in all - to preserve the welfare and safety of great nations. If the result is inconclusive, the conflict will be renewed after an uneasy interval. But when an absolute decision is obtained the system of the victors - whoever they are - will probably be adopted to a very great extent by the vanquished. (Winston Churchill)
