Why would rulers benefit if they claimed to be chosen by the gods

aev [14]

Wow people ask this question a LOT today...
I wonder if your classmates use this website too...
So rulers benefit if they were called "god" since it gave them power and importantly glory. People looked up to them and actually believed them. With the use of "a ruling system" people would believe them and probably do anything to receive things like "honor." If might sound weird but that's history!
