A '''monarchy''' is a system of [[government]] in which one person reigns, usually a [[king]] or [[queen]]. The authority, or [[crown]], in a monarchy is generally inherited. The ruler, or monarch, is often only the head of state, not the head of government. Most modern monarchies, such as [[Britain]] and [[Denmark]], are actually governed by [[parliament]]s, and are termed "Constitutional Monarchies."
