"Your Majesty" is Thomas Mann's second novel. The plot of the novel is very simple, even seemingly popular: the protagonist Klaus Heinrich is the prince of a small principality in Germany at the turn of the last century. Because his brother, Archduke Albrecht II, is weak and has no interest in governing, he is appointed as the ruling prince and can use the title "Your Majesty". The simple and kind-hearted Klaus Heinrich liked this duty, that is, attending various events on behalf of the Archduke, but sometimes he felt vaguely lonely and empty, until he met and fell in love with Irma Spolman, the daughter of an American millionaire. In the process of pursuing Imma and being constantly rejected by her, Klaus Heinrich realizes his true nature: a hollow man who does not understand real life and feelings, lives in a fictional "world of appearances", and whose responsibilities and work have no real meaning. So he began to change himself, learned to understand the feelings of others, and began to study economics, hoping to do something practical for the country. His change also made Imma change her attitude towards him. At the end of the story, the two become engaged, and Imma's father agrees to provide money to solve the financial crisis of the small principality. In his later years, Thomas Mann called "Your Majesty" the turning point in his transition to democratic thought. Although true democracy in the modern sense has not yet appeared in this novel, it still explores the significance of the monarch in a modern country. The monarch represents and guides the people, and the people in turn influence and help the monarch make decisions. This romantic political view can be said to be the prototype of democracy.
