Explanation: In the 17th-18th century Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the Liberum Veto was a peculiar practice which allowed any member of the legislature to undo everything that was voted on and dissolving the meeting.
It was… very open to abuse, including by bribery from foreign powers to poorer (or greedier) members of the legislature, and is considered one of the major factors which prevented essential reform in Poland-Lithuania before the First Partition by foreign powers.
Orban: I’m not poor, but still LOVE peculiar practices of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. I use this practice nowadays. Those pathetic idiots can do nothing against me or my vetoes. Pfah..
