Felipe VI is the current King of Spain. Since King Juan Carlos I passed on the monarchy to his son, he has still retained the title "King", but no longer performs the requisite ceremonial functions. Felipe VI has quite a bit of influence but he does not "rule."

The country is governed by a President and a Parliament. The President is elected from the Parliament, by the Parliament, which is, in turn, elected by the people.

Spain is a Constitutional Monarchy with a democratically elected government. The head of government is called the Presidente del Gobierno (President of the Government) and his name is Mariano Rajoy Brey (Mr. Rajoy).
