The monarch’s power lasts until his or her death unless he or she abdicates.
Forms of States
Totalitarianism is a political system that strives to regulate
nearly every aspect of public and private life. Modern

Joseph Stalin, Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler, the People’s
Republic of China under Mao Zedong, and North Korea under
the Kim Dynasty.

An oligarchy is a form of government in which power effectively rests with a
small-elite segment of society distinguished by royalty, wealth, family, military, or
religious hegemony. One common example is theocracy.

divinely guided. Leaders are members of the clergy, and the state’s legal system is
based on religious law. Contemporary examples of theocracies include Saudi
Arabia, Iran, and the Vatican.
Forms of States
