Answer:

England is a a) constitutional monarchy.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1688, the Glorious Revolution led to a constitutional monarchy in Britain. In this form of monarchy, the sovereign excercises his or her authority according to the written or unwritten constitution -unlike the absolute monarchy. The United Kingdom is governed within a parliamentary democracy (where the Prime Minister is elected as member of parliament first, and then by the other members of parliament to occupy this role) under a constitutional monarchy in which the monarch is the head of state and the Prime Minister is the head of government.
