What are the advantages and disadvantages of a monarchy?

Advantages

A common feature of governments based on the UK system is that the Head of State is separated from the Head of Government. The monarch can therefore serve as a head of state and represent the country while the day-to-day running of the country is carried out by the government, with the Head of Government being the Prime Minister.

Another good reason is that having a monarchy can stop collapse of the country. In 1981, the Spanish Government were taken hostage in a coup; King Juan Carlos responded with a televised speech denouncing the coup and urging people to stand up for their democratic government; soon it was restored. Thailand avoided two similar attempts around that time thanks to their monarchy.

Disadvantages is that it can cost money to keep and often serves no apparent purpose other than to keep traditions going. Some monarchies have existed alongside fascist dictatorships, such as in Italy.

Was Vlad the Impaler an absolute monarch?

He was a very cruel despotic monarch, and he had crazy methods to rule his country. One of his anecdotes is the following;

Dracula once noticed a man working in the fields while wearing too short a caftan. The prince stopped and asked the man whether or not he had a wife. When the man answered in the affirmative, Dracula had the woman brought before him and asked her how she spent her days. The poor, frightened woman stated that she spent her days washing, baking and sewing. The prince pointed out her husband's short caftan as evidence of her laziness and dishonesty and ordered her impaled despite her husband's objection that he was well satisfied with his wife. Dracula then ordered another woman to marry the peasant but admonished her to work hard or suffer her predecessor's fate.
