If you think about it logically, it becomes obvious why one singular ruler is the default status for most of human civilization. The notion of the committee is new, one sole decision maker with advisers is as old as humanity.
Even ignoring issues like education in times without schools and belief systems that need to invoke direct lineage to gods, the fact of the matter is that in times of stress, chaos, quick decision making is needed, and the less voices arguing, the better.
It's not perfect, of course. For starters, you can still have two voices within one mind...
