MODERATORS
The government in 1700 didn't have as strong of a grasp on the military as it does now. And the police kind of didn't exist in this time. The biggest inventions of the 20th century are mass surveillance, repression, and propaganda. An armed force being able to go from one side of the country to the other in a few hours is also a strength for government stability.
