Monarquía

A monarquía, or monarchy, is a form of government where a king, queen, or emperor holds the supreme power. Typically, the monarch’s role is inherited, passed down through generations. Monarchies can be absolute, where the ruler has extensive authority, or constitutional, where their powers are limited by laws and a governing body, with elected officials managing daily affairs. Monarchies have existed for centuries and often symbolize national identity, tradition, and continuity. While some have transitioned to democratic systems, others remain vital political structures within their countries.
