What is a monarchy?
A monarchy is a form of government in which a single ruler, usually a king or queen, holds all the power and authority. In a monarchy, the position of the ruler is usually hereditary, meaning it is passed down through a royal family. Monarchies can be absolute, where the ruler has complete control over the government, or constitutional, where the ruler's powers are limited by a constitution or parliament. Monarchies have existed throughout history and can be found in various countries around the world.

Is monarchy actually illegal?
Monarchy is not inherently illegal, as there are several countries around the world that still have a monarchy as part of their government structure. However, in some countries, the monarchy may be limited in its powers and subject to constitutional or legal restrictions. In other countries, the monarchy may have been abolished or transformed into a ceremonial role. Therefore, the legality of monarchy depends on the specific laws and constitution of each country.

What is the difference between a parliamentary monarchy and a constitutional monarchy?
A parliamentary monarchy is a form of government in which a monarch acts as the head of state, while the day-to-day affairs of the government are managed by a parliament and a prime minister. In this system, the monarch's powers are largely ceremonial and symbolic. On the other hand, a constitutional monarchy is a form of government in which the monarch's powers are limited by a constitution, and the government is run by elected officials. In a constitutional monarchy, the monarch's role is largely ceremonial and symbolic, similar to a parliamentary monarchy, but the powers and limitations are defined by a constitution.

What is the difference between an elective monarchy and a hereditary monarchy?
An elective monarchy is a system in which the monarch is chosen by a group of individuals, such as nobles or a council, through a process of election. In contrast, a hereditary monarchy is a system in which the monarch's position is passed down through generations within a specific family or bloodline. While in an elective monarchy the ruler is selected based on merit, qualifications, or other criteria, in a hereditary monarchy, the succession is based solely on familial ties and lineage.

What is the Danube Monarchy? Is it a dual monarchy between Austria and Hungary or a Habsburg monarchy? Need help.
The Danube Monarchy, also known as the Austro-Hungarian Empire, was a dual monarchy between Austria and Hungary. It was established in 1867 after the Austro-Hungarian Compromise, which granted Hungary more autonomy within the empire. The Habsburg monarchy refers to the ruling family of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, as the Habsburgs were the ruling dynasty of both Austria and Hungary. Therefore, the Danube Monarchy can be considered both a dual monarchy between Austria and Hungary and a Habsburg monarchy.

What is a federal monarchy?
A federal monarchy is a form of government in which a single monarch serves as the head of state for multiple constituent political entities, such as states or provinces. Each constituent entity retains a degree of autonomy and self-governance, while the monarch serves as a unifying figure for the entire federation. This system allows for a balance of centralized authority with regional self-determination, and is often found in countries with a history of regional diversity and distinct cultural identities. Examples of federal monarchies include Canada, Australia, and Malaysia.
