In my world anyone can use magic with the proper training. There are two levels of magic users: • The first level is apprentice (someone with 4 to 8 years of magic education). They can move people and medium size objects with their mind, sense what a person is feeling, and they have limited control over one of the elements (earth, fire, air, water). • The second level is master (for this you must have between 20 and 30 years of training). They can move large objects such as buildings and large boulders with their minds, read and control the minds of others, control all four elements and summon large storms or earthquakes. My question is this: given how powerful the mages are, how can the kings and lords of the land prevent them from uniting together and taking over the world?

The tech level is same as that of the early colonization of America. How do you keep people who've taken over the world from becoming mages? Since anyone can learn magic young members of the nobility would routinely study magic.

Being able to read and control the minds of others is a hell of an advantage for a king or any senior noble. In this world since anyone can learn but only those with the money and time for training can become really powerful whichever way you spin it the nobles are going to make themselves mages even if nobody takes over. Which gives us the answer: The mages won't revolt because the richest and most powerful people already running the country will have trained as mages already.

If you were king in this world you'd be sending your kids to learn magic and taking your own private classes. Some mages might be more powerful than the king but at that point they're either invested in the system or are facing hundreds of powerful mages in the nobility who are invested in the system.

According to your answer magic isn't powered by anything external, it comes from themselves so you can't strip the manna from around mages. If you want it to turn out differently you need to change the rules for who can use magic and how in this world. This would also have an interesting effect on succession: if you're in the line of succession and need to be a master mage to rule, then you can't succeed the previous king until you're 35-40 years old (assuming you start training at age 15). If people have a life expectancy after childhood of 50-60 years, then most 'kings' would actually spend most of their life as princes-in-waiting, and agnatic seniority would be popular as a way for another highly-trained mage to take over while the king's children finished their long training periods.

They'd all learn magic, then pass laws and use existing religion and social structures to prevent the filthy masses from threatening the existing order. Only those with noble blood and members of the clergy may study magic, on penalty of death and eternal damnation. (This literally happened with written language in many parts of the world, not to mention military technologies and the like.) – Jul 2 '16 at 22:28. Kithara Dos Enabler Download Adobe. I feel like there is a flaw in the logic of your premise. If, as mentioned in your setting, any one can use magic with the proper training what's to say that your kings are not already mages.
