diarchy

Diarchy is a governance system where power is shared between two authorities or leaders, each having equal authority and responsibilities. Instead of a single ruler or a hierarchy, two individuals or bodies govern together, ensuring a balance of power. This system aims to combine different perspectives and reduce the risk of abuse by dividing authority. Diarchies can be found in some historical monarchies, religious contexts, or organizational structures, allowing collaboration and coexistence of dual leadership to achieve common goals more effectively.
