Answer 1

Government run by a King,Queen,emperor ect. The modern concept of a limited, constitutional monarchy arose slowly throughout much of Europe. During the 19th century, parliamentary authority grew while royal power diminished. Many Western monarchies ceased to exist after World War I, including those in Russia, Germany, and Austria. In later years others were replaced by Communist governments. Some constitutional monarchies still survive, primarily as symbols of national unity. Among the most enduring are those of the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Belgium.

Answer 2

A monarchy, from the Greek μονος, "one," and αρχειν, "to rule', is a form of government that has a Monarch as Head of State. A distinguishing characteristic of most monarchies is that the Monarch usually reigns as Head of State for life; in a republic, the Head of State (often called the president) is normally elected for a certain amount of time. There are currently 29 monarchs reigning over 44 extant sovereign monarchies in the world, the monarch of the United Kingdom being shared with 15 other independent realms. As such, this one multiple monarch reigns over vast geographic areas including the trans-continental realms of Canada and Australia.

The term monarchy is also used to refer to the people (especially the dynasty, also known as 'royalty') and institutions that make up the royal or imperial establishment, or to the realm over which the monarch reigns.

In most monarchies, the Monarch serves as a symbol of continuity and statehood. Many monarchies are constituted by tradition or by codified law so that the Monarch has little real political power, in others the monarch holds substantial power but is limited from exercising it by popular or precedental opinion, but in others the Monarch holds substantial power. In some cases, the symbolism of monarchy alongside the symbolism of democracy can lead to divisions over seemingly contradictory principles of sovereignty.

Answer 4

A monarchy is a government ruled by one person, such as a king or queen. As to the effect it had on the European Monarchy, I would say not much because most of the problems were internal due to civil unrest or from members of the ruling class.
