Question

Compare and Contrast: Write a similarity and difference between a country ruled by a king (monarchy) and a government with separation of powers

Answer 1

Similarity: Both a country ruled by a king and a government with separation of powers involve a system of government in which there are different branches or levels of authority.

Difference: In a monarchy, the power is typically held by a single individual, the monarch or king, who has the authority to make decisions and rule the country. The king is often the head of state, and their power is typically hereditary, meaning it is passed down through the royal family. In contrast, a government with separation of powers divides power among different branches, such as the executive, legislative, and judicial branches, with each branch having its own distinct functions and powers. The leaders of each branch are often elected or appointed by the people or by other branches of government, rather than being determined by birthright. Additionally, a monarchy often has less accountability and transparency than a government with separation of powers, as the monarch may not be subject to the same checks and balances that are typically built into a democratic system with separation of powers.

Answer 2

Answer:monarchy?

An absolute monarch is not legally bound whereas a constitutional monarch is legally bound by the constitution of his country. In the absolute monarchy, the monarch gains powers either through heredity or marriage. In the constitutional monarchy, the prime minister is elected either directly or indirectly.

Explanation:There is no constitutional governance in an absolute monarchy, and the king and queen have complete authority over their subjects. On the other hand, in a constitutional monarchy, the monarch (the king or queen) and a constitutional government like parliament shares political authority.
