identify two types of monarchical government

1 answer

Two types of monarchical government are:

  1. Absolute Monarchy: In an absolute monarchy, the monarch has almost complete control over the government and is not bound by a constitution or laws. The monarch wields significant power over political, legal, and social decisions, and their decrees may not require approval from any legislative body. Historical examples include Louis XIV of France and King Shah Jahan of India.

  2. Constitutional Monarchy: In a constitutional monarchy, the monarch's powers are limited by a constitution or laws, and there is typically a parliamentary system in place. The monarch may serve as a ceremonial figurehead, while actual governance is carried out by elected officials. Modern examples of constitutional monarchies include the United Kingdom, Sweden, and Japan.
