Whenever a monarch used theism as a base to validate their ruler's rights to rule and the people are buying that? Or even straight-up theocratic nations? I think there are more examples, I just can't think of them right now.

That's not all that long ago in historical terms.

The Tsar thought he was anointed by god right up until the Bolsheviks blew him away.
