Islam is a way of life
I would say no only the warning of oppressive rulers but also Shirk like behaviour towards the Monarchs. They are NOT Gods. They are people like the rest of us.
People will often hold them unaccountable because of their status. When in fact, they are human and make mistakes. They are not infalliable nor above Allah subhaan wa ta ala.
THAT is my main concern.

Life was bad in Europe during the Dark Ages were Christian Kings ruled Europe.
I don't believe that a Monarchy System is a bad thing as long as the King is a Muslim and not a Christian or a Jew because life was bad in Europe during the Dark Ages were Christian Kings ruled Europe.

ISLAM AND THE CLASS SYSTEM
Before we discuss Islam's attitude regarding the concept of classes it may be useful to try to understand what is generally meant by a "class system".
In medieval Europe, for instance, there were three distinct classes: the nobility, the clergy and the common people.
The clergy had their own distinctive clothes. In those ages the power of the church was equal and at times opposed to that of kings and emperors. The Pope claimed that it was he who confer*!red power on kings but they strove to get rid of his influence in order to rule independently. Owing to the property donated by the religious people and the exactions imposed on them, the church became so rich that at times it could have armies of its own. On the other hand, the nobility inherited nobleness from their forefathers and passed it on to their descendants. A man belonged to the nobility by birth and remained as such until his death regardless of whatever noble or mean actions he might have done in his lifetime.
