I recommend for starters Cuba, right now. That’s how dictatorships, which is all a monarchy is, work in the REAL world.
A dictator, like Napoleon, may claim a monarchic title. That would be a species of self-proclaimed monarchy. That is usually not recongnized by anyone outside of that monarchy, except for some self-serving reason.
Communist leaders never claim a monarchic status. They never assume real owenrship of the nation's resource, for example. They typically say that they are popularly elected and set up sham elections to justify the continuation of their rule. They derive their power, they say, from the people, whereas a monarch ordinarily understands that he is divinely appointed in charge of the country. Power ina monarchy comes form God. Power in any form of democrachy, e.g. of a communist kind, comes demagogically from the people and in fact is raw military power of coercion.
A monarchy is a form of government in which the head of state reigns by some kind of perceived divine sanction. It is usually hereditary and there is usually only one monarch, though there are significant exceptions to these. The monarch often bears the title king or queen. However, emperors/empresses, grand dukes/grand duchesses, and other ranks, are or have been used to designate monarchs. As explained below, the word monarch means 'single ruler', but cultural and historical considerations would appear to exclude presidents and other heads of state. Historically, the notion of monarchy may emerge under different circumstances.
A dictatorship is defined as an autocratic form of government in which the government is ruled by an individual, the dictator. It has three possible meanings: A Roman dictator was the incumbent of a political office of the Roman Republic. Roman dictators were allocated absolute power during times of emergency. Their power was originally neither arbitrary nor unaccountable, being subject to law and requiring retrospective justification. There were no such dictatorships after the beginning of the 2nd century BC, and later dictators such as Sulla and the Roman Emperors exercised power much more personally and arbitrarily. A government controlled by one person, or a small group of people. In this form of government the power rests entirely on the person or group of people, and can be obtained by force or by inheritance. The dictator(s) may also take away much of its peoples' freedom. In contemporary usage, dictatorship refers to an autocratic form of absolute rule by leadership unrestricted by law, constitutions, or other social and political factors within the state.
May I ask you something? I patiently respond to your posts and substantiate my response with facts and logic. Would you please do the same?
