What would be the point of switching venomous rodents with shrews? Also, don't let them near Shakespeare, he has a habit of taming them.
An excellent question, thank you for asking.
The shrewocracy that I suggest would eschew the common foible of maximum wealth equates to maximum power. I am certain they would focus a large portion of their political resources to foraging for food and hiding from predators.
Unfortunately shrews, much like our current political figureheads, suffer from small eyes and poor vision.
Imp Emissary also makes a compelling point. A three year term ending in death is another quality perk from this form of government.
P.S. Thank you ellers07 for the positive reinforcement
