Ohh most definitely!!!!! But being one who knows a lot about history and government, balance of power is only used in Democracy's and Republic's. I don't think it would work because dictatorship is an autocratic form of government in which the government is ruled by a dictator, where balance of power is where a ruler has power, the court has power, and citizens have power. Monarchy is a form of government in which a monarch, usually a single person, is the head of state. So that's why their are different names and categories, to classify the different forms of government

there would be no balance of power if there was a dictatorship unless the dictator was trying to set up a diffrent type of balance of power but then again it wouldn't realy wouldn't be balance of power because its a dictatorship. in a monarchy it could be the same as the united states just that one section of the power would be ran by that faimly and would be passed on to their kids. so its like the united states but there would be no voting

No difference.
The "balance of power" was a term that was first coined I think in the 19th century. It references the concept relating to international diplomacy; where one or more nations would form an alliance against another or group of nations, in order to keep the peace; so that one nation or group, would not feel militarily strong enough, to start a war. Needlessly to say, it was not terribly successful.

But witness the group of nations that allied themselves against Germany, both in WW I and WW II. It was after the fact so to speak, but you get the general idea.

The Napoleonic wars is another example. All countries in Europe including Great Britain, ganged up to try and keep Napoleon in check. They weren't terribly successful either; but the alliance did eventurally defeat him, at Waterloo and before.

But it makes no difference what the form of government is/was on either side: the Czars ruled in Russia at the time of Napoleon, and Stalin there during WW II.

By their very definition, there can be no balance of power in those systems. They are ran by one person with no input from the people. The people serve them. They do not serve the people.
