A monarchy is a country or system of government ruled by a king or queen, called a monarch, where power is usually passed down through the family. In an 'absolute monarchy,' the king or queen has total control over the country. In a 'constitutional monarchy,' like the UK or Japan, the king or queen is mostly a symbol, and the real political power belongs to elected leaders like a prime minister and parliament.
