I am thinking of abolishing inheritance through bloodline—both because the blood of Clan Ku should perhaps end with me, and because our nation has a longstanding history of oppressing its people based on station and birth. Along with its warmongering stance, I wish to eliminate its pervasive belief that birthright is what matters.

So the notion of democracy isn't unappealing to me, though I expect that the court of Ku will resist it... Still, I was at the very least considering the idea of appointing an unrelated heir when the time comes, even if I don't think that will be for many years.
