Iraq has a large number of rulers in its history, even if we constrain our view to the "independent Iraq" period. In the Kingdom of Iraq period, Iraq was a constitutional monarchy with a very powerful monarch. In the Iraqi Republic period, Iraq was a Presidential Republic, where the President was the supreme authority. In the Republic of Iraq Period, Iraq has become a Parliamentary Republic where the Prime Minister is the supreme authority and the President is a more ceremonial position.
