राजतन्त्र
Sign in to saveA monarchy is a hereditary form of government in which political power is legally passed on to the family members of the monarch, a head of state who rules for life. While monarchs gain their power depending on specific succession laws, they can also gain their authority via election.
A monarchy is a form of government where a monarch (head of state) rules for life and passes political power to family members according to set succession laws, though some monarchs are elected rather than inheriting their position. Monarchies matter because they represent one of the primary ways societies have historically organized political authority and continue to shape governance in many countries today.
