It's a huge world at a single humans point of view. With communications technology and the internet forcing everything everywhere into instant availability you could easily forget how huge Earth can truly be. Take all of that away; the airplanes, vehicles, satellites, the internet; and suddenly your not half the powerful being you once were.
Technology controls the world. If You don't got the technology then you're not in control. Politics are conjecture, a pastime, a way to keep your attention without being doused in tense silence. Think about the amount of words, discussions and papers go into each government action these days. You could publish a book for each proposition or policy. It was that long ago a Kings decree would be simple, take one or two pages and stand as the divine authority in the land. Those were the quick days. Beurocracy and red tape and long marathon battles on how things are done are the order of today.
A lot of the time we are vexed with the amount of tricky politics thrown at us and usually what they approve doesn't happen and they do something fully different. You can't argue with them if youre a common folk, you can only hope that what they decide to do doesn't negatively affect you.
That is my take on politics.
