You can love the conquerer more than the economist only as long as you have, you know, food to eat, guards that protect you from brigands, and so on.

Stop spreading nonsense, please.
And yet Henry VII and Luis XIV were loved and honored. I really doubt these Andoran nobles made life for their subjects tougher than those two kings did.
