As of now, there is no definitive evidence that magnetic monopoles exist in the universe. Scientists continue to search for these hypothetical particles, but they have not been observed or detected so far.
Monopoles are an abstraction which was created by Dirac. According modern physics monopoles don't exist. But there are some speculations in physics saying if monopoles exist how would it change this world.
Gauss's law for magnetism states that magnetic monopoles do not exist. This means that magnetic poles always come in pairs, with a north pole and a south pole together.
All magnetisim is due to moving charges. The best way to think of why all magnets have two poles is to think of a coil of wire with a current in it. This will create a magnet very much like a bar magnet. In the coil, one end is the North pole and the other end is the South pole. Now you can see that the coil must have two poles because it must have two ends. Cut the coil in half and it still has two ends. Cut the coil down to one loop and it still has two ends. Even in a bar magnet the magnetism is due to the orbiting electrons in the material. One side of the orbit is one pole and the other side is the other pole and there is no way to have an orbit without two sides. Now if magnetisim had magnetic charges ,like electricity does, then you could have magnetic monopoles but no one has ever found a magnetic charge.
Magnetic poles are always found in pairs (North and South), unlike electric charges which can exist independently. Magnetic poles also do not exist as isolated charges, while electric charges can be found separately. Additionally, magnetic charges do not exist as distinct entities like electric charges.
The divergence of magnetic field intensity is zero. This is because magnetic monopoles do not exist, meaning that the field lines always form closed loops and do not have sources or sinks. Mathematically, this is represented by Gauss's law for magnetism, ∇⋅B = 0.

Maxwell's second equation (Gauss's law for magnetism) states that magnetic monopoles do not exist since magnetic field lines always form closed loops, indicating that there is no source or sink of magnetic field. This means that magnetic field lines never start or end at a single point, and instead always form complete loops, leading to the conclusion that magnetic monopoles do not exist.
Maybe. Monopoles are theoretical. This has been a question for some time, and just recently, monopoles have been discovered on the subatomic level. As of yet, they cannot be turned into the magnet that you and I imagine, but with only one pole due to their unique crystaline structure.
Magnetism is the result of moving electrical charges - and such movement will always result in a dipole.On the other hand, it has indeed been considered, by some modern theories, that there might be so-called "magnetic monopoles" - particles with only a north (or south) magnetic "charge" but no such monopoles have been observed so far. Perhaps the monopoles - should they exist - are too massive to be created in particle accelerators, for example.

As far as I know, the north and south poles of a magnet are equal in strength, because the net magnetic charge of a magnet must be zero (unless monopoles exist).
Magnetic monopoles are hypothetical particles that are predicted to exist with isolated north or south magnetic poles. The first potential observation of a magnetic monopole was reported by Blas Cabrera in 1982, using a superconducting detector. However, further research is still ongoing to confirm their existence.
No, particles that carry a magnetic charge, as opposed to an electric charge, have not been observed in nature. Magnetism is a consequence of moving electric charges, so charged particles such as electrons and protons interact with magnetic fields, but they do not possess an inherent magnetic charge.
Pairs - although monopoles have long been speculated about!
