I hate the unfairness of injustice. Anybody who thinks they are better than others or 'chosen' or feel they have an entitlement... be it through monarchy, government or money. I think we are all born the same. We are entitled to an equal shot at life.

Monarchy is classified by how much power the ruler holds, from symbolic to absolute control.

Monarchs usually inherit their position, often passed down within a family.

Hereditary Role

Monarchies often have significant cultural and historical importance in a country.

Cultural Impact

A single monarch often symbolizes the state and embodies its continuity over time.

Individual Power

Monarchs may perform primarily ceremonial roles in modern states, with limited governance.
