A monarch typically takes power by taking over when the previous monarch dies or retires. This method, referred to as hereditary succession, is the most common way for a monarch to ascend to the throne. It involves the passing of power from one generation to the next within a royal family. In some cases, a monarch may also take power through a revolution or by being appointed by leaders of a political party, but these methods are less common and often associated with non-traditional or non-hereditary monarchies.
