It would have been interesting if England had invaded, for example, the US to rid it of the scourge of Democracy and re-imposed the Divinely inspired institution of Monarchy.

Sure, it would be interesting.

I am curious do you think all forms of government are equal.

BTW,
Since you often decry what you see as the US and the West's support of dictatorships, aren't you being inconsistent?

Who are we to object to a nation's internal way of governing? I suppose we should actually be supporting all governments no matter what then?

Or is this yet more situational ethics?
Whatever standard of ethics makes the US wrong is the right one...

The US has been known to intervene in a country's process of deciding who its leader is in favour of a leader the US likes. For example, it will interfere in elections, or support coups, etc.

Think Prime Directive.
