Great Britain is not a monarchy, nor a democracy. As all those countries calling for democracy they're under the rule of a procedimental democracy, but the so called "royal family" has practically no real power, so it's not a monarchy. It's as any other procedimental democracy, only that not only models can win their bread of every day (and plasma television) with their genes, but also you can live well without doing absolutely nothing and protected by the shadow of God....ooooooooo
