    You said republics are also called representative democracies. You also said the monarchy is the opposite of democracy.

    Those are both incorrect statements.

      If you’re a monarchy, you’re not a republic.

      I asked where did I said opposite. Not where we said same thing.

        I am not saying the same thing as you.

        You’re saying monarchy is the opposite of democracy.

        I’m saying monarchy is the opposite of republic.

        This isn’t a matter of opinion. You’re just wrong. Monarchies can be electoral democracies. The UK is a monarchy and it’s an electoral democracy.

        (But it’s not republic, because republic is the opposite of monarchy.)

          Monarchies can be representative democracies.

          I’ll leave it here.
