What is the difference between aristocracy and monarchy form of government?

Answer 1

Best way to understand it properly is to read both articles and then compare and contrast in your own mind.

Oligarchy - rule by a privileged few.

Aristocracy - rule by the best.

Essentially it is the same terminology but the two are structured slightly differently. Aristocracy has many families ruling the many (the bourgeouis of France), whereas an oligarchy sees a family ruling the many (the Chinese dynasties).

Answer 2

The difference between democracy and aristocracy is an aristocracy are usually there because of their privilege at birth, like a lord or baron, whereas a democracy the people are theoretically elected on merit, regardless of social rank or title, everyone has a chance to be in the government.

Answer 3

A monarch is single ruler and therefore a monarchy is ruled directly by the monarch as a single concentration of power. Aristocrats are numerous nobles and can ruled either as a federalistic oligarchy (where they have a united authority in a capital city) or as a confederacy (where each aristorcrat has local control in a specific area, but they unite against threats).

Answer 4

Monarchy is kings and queens, Aristocracy are nobles or people generally "better" than you.

Answer 5

In a democracy, everybody gets an equal say in what happens; in aristocracy, it is only that small group that gets such a say.
