yes, what about Brunei?
Brunei is absolutely a monarchy. Brunei is an absolute monarchy.
10 of the first 20 countries are nominally monarchies.
Zero of the last 20 countries are nominally monarchies.
The monarchy seems to be quite a successful form government. If it is "backward", seems to be not very important to me.
10 of the first 20 countries are nominally not monarchies.
Zero of the last 20 countries are from outside of Africa.
The monarchy seems to be quite a successful form of government - for monarchies! Especially monarchies which exploited African countries…
But maybe it has not so much to do with the official form of government but with there being institutions like a strong parliament, free press, rule of law and so on - ultimately, it probably depends on how much actual power the rulers have and how much they can abuse that power, whether they call themselves kings, emperors, presidents or supreme leaders.
As an anecdote, when the monarchy was abolished and the office of president established in Weimar Germany, the new president was jokingly called Ersatzkaiser ("substitute emperor") because his role was not very different from that of a monarch in a parliamentary monarchy (and still isn't to this day).
For my money, the only thing that matters in evaluating government is the governance itself, and there just doesn't seem to be any good evidence that republics are inherently more "advanced" in that sense. The rest is just irrelevant theorising.
I think it must have been one of the first modern republics. Perhaps you are both just too well-informed!
they are the same person bro 💀
I just checked out some of jbro's quizzes, they're really good - give them a go!
The reason Portugal is a Republic and Spain is a Constitutional Monarchy is because in 1910, Portugal overthrew King Manuel II who escaped to England. Portugal never became a Monarchy again.
Spain became The Second Spanish Republic after King Alfonso III was deposed in 1931. Francisco Franco defeated the Republic in 1939 and became Dictator. He reinstated the Monarchy and named Juan Carlos I, the grandson of Alfonso III, as the next King before his death in 1975. Juan Carlos I worked to peacefully transition Spain to a Constitutional Monarchy and approved a New Constitution in 1978. Carlos stayed King until 2014.
Offiically it's not a monarchy but in practice it's one.
