What rights do citizens have in a monarchy?

It varies from country to country. Rights in a democratic state, whether a constitutional monarchy or a republic will tend to be roughly the same. While each is different, they all guarantee and affirm in their own way the basic rights set out in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights: the freedoms of expression, conscience, assembly, association and movement; the rights to life and liberty; the right not to be subjected to torture or cruel and unusual punishment; and the right to a fair trial, due process and natural justice. Basically they would have the same rights as in a democratic parliamentary or democratic presidential republic - the rights of a Swede, Canadian or Briton (all living in constitutional monarchies) are similar to those of an US, French or Italian citizen (living in democratic republics). Beyond normal guarantees for individual rights (such as the right to life, property, welfare, freedom of expression, religion, right to information, interdiction of censorship etc. etc.), that are available, each citizen has a set of political rights (like in the US or France). Typically, those in constitutional monarchy elect the legislative body of the country (the parliament or congress or diet or whatever the said country chooses to call it), which in terms elects the executive (the largest party/the coalition of parties that get the majority gets to form a government), which is represented by a prime-minister (same as in the case of parliamentary republics). So, what the president does in the US (or in other presidential republics), the prime minister does in a parliamentary republic or a constitutional monarchy. The only difference between a constitutional monarchy and a parliamentary republic is that the nominal head of state is the king/queen, that is not elected, but that stands only as a figurehead, as an international image of the country (same as the pres. of the US, say) and as a rallying flag in times of trouble. Unlike the president of the US, a parliamentary president or a monarch has no say in the executive or legislative affairs of the country - they must fully obey the choice of the people through the parliament. Of course, the citizens are entitled to criticize the king/queen (newspapers here are full of criticism and/or gossip), and even, if they so choose, depose their monarch by means of a referendum and install a republic instead (for example, in Australia, some parties want that, and have called a referendum, but people chose that they want to be a monarchy for the future). So, in a nutshell, people in a constitutional monarchy have all the rights of people in a democratic presidential or parliamentary republic.


When was the republic of Kenya founded?

Kenya was declared a republic on 12 December 1964, when substantial changes were made to the Kenyan constitution to provide for governance of the country as a presidential republic. Elizabeth II ceased to be head of state and the position of Governor-General was abolished. The British Parliament enacted the Kenya Republic Act 1965 to provide that Kenya's status as a republic would not affect Kenyans' status as Commonwealth citizens and British subjects. From independence on 12 December 1963 to the constitutional reforms of 12 December 1964, Kenya was governed as a constitutional monarchy with Elizabeth II as head of state. All duties of the Queen were exercised by the Governor-General of Kenya. Though Kenyan citizens ceased to be citizens of the United Kingdom and Colonies on independence, they remained British subjects by virtue of their citizenship in a country that was a member of the Commonwealth.
