Monarchical Systems

Monarchical systems are forms of government where a single individual, known as a monarch, holds supreme authority. This individual, often a king or queen, usually inherits their position through family lineage. Monarchies can be absolute, where the monarch has complete power, or constitutional, where their authority is limited by law or a constitution. In constitutional monarchies, like the United Kingdom, the monarch's role is largely ceremonial, while elected officials govern. Monarchies often symbolize tradition and unity, but their relevance and power can vary widely depending on the country's political structure and cultural context.
