Federal Monarchy

A federal monarchy is a system of government where a country is divided into regions or states that have their own local governments, while a central monarch serves as the head of state. In this arrangement, the monarch's powers may be largely ceremonial, with much of the governing power held by elected officials at both the federal and state levels. This structure allows regions to maintain a degree of autonomy while recognizing the authority of the monarch, blending traditional monarchy with modern federal governance. Examples include countries like Canada, where the monarch is represented by a governor-general.
