As Lewis Carol once wrote: The Lion and the Unicorn were fighting for the crown!
The unicorn represents those whom are ruled, and of course the crown, the monarchy. and in civilization, monarchies, lost out, and have been replaced by Oligarcies.
oligarchy: 1. small governing group: group of people who together govern a nation or control an organization, often for their own purposes.
As all government is devisive, history has proved the truth of:
MATTHEW 12:25. Every Kingdom divided against itself is bought to dessolation; Every city or house divided against itself, shall not stand. On line KJV http://ebible.org/kjv/kjv.htm
