The form of government where a person becomes the head of government by either inheriting the office or being elected to it for life is known as a monarchy, specifically an absolute monarchy if the monarch holds significant power. In this system, the monarch's authority is often seen as divinely ordained or legitimized through tradition. While some monarchies are constitutional and have limited powers, those that allow for life tenure without electoral challenges typically concentrate power in the hands of the monarch.
