What is the difference between monarchy and tyranny?

Answer 1

A tyranny is when someone sizes power from the leader and rules without objection. These sort of governments aren't approved. Often happens when the Monarch is hated. Often, a tyranny doesn't always lead to greatness but it does sometimes if the person secures power for the right reasons (Fidel Castro, for example).

A monarchy is when someone inherits power from the King or Queen (Henry VII --> Henry VIII). This is often accepted and not really rebelled against unless he does something which doesn't please the public.

Most governments are a democracy nowadays, where people vote for the leader and there is freedom of speech etc.

Answer 2

Totalitarianism is any type of Dictatorship where the dictator has a state apparatus that controls the totality of their subjects' lives. A monarch can be a totalitarian dictator, but is not necessarily so. A monarchy is any government ruled by a person who gains power through family inheritance, usually called a "king", "emperor", "prince", "sultan", or "emir".

Answer 3

Monarchy specifically refers to any government ruled by a royal family, such as a kingdom, principality, sultanate, emirate, or chiefdom. Tyranny refers to any overly oppressive government regardless of how power is delineated. Since the terms operate on different values, with monarchy operating on how a person gains power and tyranny operating on how a person uses power, the terms are non-exclusive. You can have a tyrannical monarchy, a non-tyrannical monarchy, a tyrannical non-monarchy, and governments that are both non-tyrannical and non-monarchic.

Answer 4

A monarchy is ruled by one person who inherits power, and tyrants sizes it.

Answer 5

In a dictatorship, the government holds all power over its people. In a tyranny, the government PRESSES what power it has on its people.
