State
A monarchy is a government in which a single person rules until death or abdication, typically through hereditary succession.
Show
A monarch's claim to rule passes to an heir by the rules of succession, not by election or appointment.
Watch for
Holding the title "monarch" says nothing about how much actual power the position carries; that varies by nation.
