A Constitutional Monarchy has a parliament that is like our legislative branch. The king or queen have to follow the same laws as the citizens. They have a constitution. Example: England Constitutional Monarchy

DEMOCRACY Democracy comes from Greek language and means “rule by the people.”

DEMOCRACY Democracy is a government in which citizens are involved in making decisions.

DEMOCRACY A family of 4 wants to go out to dinner and everyone has their own idea about where to go. Susie wants Chinese, Jerome wants hamburgers, and Mom wants seafood. And Dad? Well, he likes it all. The family talks it over, with each person giving an opinion. And then they vote on where to go.

DEMOCRACY Each person gets one vote. On this day, Susie votes for Chinese, Mom votes for seafood, and Jerome votes for burgers. Looks like dad is going to have the deciding vote. He remembers how much he liked the chicken chow mein at the Chinese restaurant last time they were there. So he chooses Chinese. Looks like the family is going to have Chinese tonight because the Chinese food had the most votes. That’s how democracy plays a part in everyday life-by people making decisions as a group, with each person getting a vote.

DEMOCRACIES There are different types of democracies: Direct Representative
