There are different types of governments in Europe. Some are monarchies, constitutional monarchies, and republics.
As is the case today, there were many different types of government in existence in the 1930s. Examples include democracies, republics, democratic republics, constitutional monarchies, traditional monarchies, and dictatorships.

It depends entirely on the time in question. Spain has had monarchies, dictatorships, parliamentary republics, and caudillos.
Constitution
Most West Indies states are constitutional monarchies, being a part of the Commonwealth. The remaining are republics.
No. They are not republics. They have a monarch, Queen Elizabeth. If a country has a monarch it does not have a president. Republics and monarchies are two different systems of running countries and have different types of heads of state.
The underlying assumption of this question, which is that constitutional monarchies are considered democracies by dint of being constitutional monarchies, is false. "Constitutional Monarchy" simply means that the power of the monarch (king) is limited by a constitution. This constitution can be enforced by some kind of oligarchy, aristocracy, or the common gentry. If the constitution is enforced by an oligarchy or aristocracy, the resulting state is not a democracy, whereas if it is enforced by the common gentry, it is democratic.Now, since almost all current constitutional monarchies are of this latter variety (monarchies with a constitution enforced by common people), people generally drop the intermediate step of separating non-democratic constitutional monarchies from democratic constitutional monarchies and refer to constitutional monarchies as a form of democracy.
They both were absolute monarchies.
Napoleon had conquered much of Europe. He had turned monarchies into republics, Republics into truibutary monarchies; he had changed boundaries, amalgamated states, done away with others. Now he was defeated and nobody knew what belonged to whom and under what form of government. A Congress of all the powers was needed to sort this mess out.
