Presently , most agree there are three domains (or Superkingdoms)- Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. The domain system split the prokaryotes. This is all still a work in progress; the three domain system makes the Monera Kingdom obsolete because it splites them into two different domains.

There is no taxonomic category before kingdom. There would only be something like Living or Non-living. Even at the kingdom level, unicellualr and multicellular organisms are broken up. There are currently 6 kingdoms, but there is also much debate on whether or not some of them should be lumped together or split apart. Im sure over the next little while, new genetic evidence will crop up and change the basic taxonomy of several groups and may even combine two or more kingdoms, but as of right now they are all still the way they have always been.

In the Eukaryotic domain there are four Kingdoms: plant, animal, protist, and fungi. Then there is the prokaryotic domain with a fifth Kingdom called bacteria or monera sometimes.
