Hm... can't be the first time a dictator dies. KJI inherited the state from his father iirc. Anyone here enough of a historian to give us non-historians some examples in history when dictators kick the bucket?

I'm inclined to believe that there's always a number two guy with his finger on the trigger ready to seize control... and that everyone in the "inner circle" already knows who's going to do it.
