Iran is at least one country with a theocratic government.
The Vatican is a theocracy; some consider Iran to be a theocratic republic.
Mauritania has a semi-presidential theocratic Islamic republic form of government. The country has a president, a prime minister, and a legislature.
The word "theocratic" comes from the Greek words for "god" and "government. It means "government by priests" or whatever kind of religious leaders the particular state has. A "theocratic republic" would be a state whose governors are elected from a group of priests. Vatican City is a "theocratic republic". The government of Iran, although described as a republic, is really more like a theocratic constitutional monarchy, as the Supreme Leader (Ayatollah) is not an elected position (but is one which is always filled by a top cleric.)
As of October 2023, there are very few countries with a theocratic government. The most notable example is Iran, which is governed by a system that combines Islamic law with political authority. Other nations, such as Vatican City, also exhibit theocratic elements, but the overall number of fully theocratic states is limited. Generally, theocratic governance is rare in the modern world, with only a handful of countries fitting the definition.

Yes, when religious leaders run a government it is a theocracy. Many countries today are still theocratic.
