- In this video we look at the difference between a dictatorship and a monarchy. We start by looking at an overview of the two government systems and general definitions of each. Then we look at the similarities between the two, that both are a single person that is the head of state and that they can (in an absolute monarchy) have absolute power in their ruling. Then we look at their differences. The first difference is when they appeared. A monarchy is one of the oldest forms of government. Another difference is how they preserve power. And lastly, by how power is passed on. Both types of governments exist. For dictatorships, North Korea has had a dynastic dictatorship. For monarchies we looks at the example of the United Kingdom and Saudi Arabia.

Monarchy vs Republic could make a good video.
This made it much more clearer to differentiate between them! Thanks a ton!!:)
Glad it was helpful!
The only way I can become a monarch and change my country into a monarchy is to first become a strong dictator and then appoint my family as sole rulers of the land down to my very last successor. Sooner or later my dictatorship will be forgotten and later generations will be taught in schools that my family is a Monarchy and not a dictatorship. They will portray me and my family in schools as the great kings and queens. I will have to cut off my people from all social media and the outside world so they won’t know any better. It will be a long process and it takes a lot of scheming now that people are smarter and have the internet. In the olden days where there was no media, you could probably get away with becoming a monarch with a sword and a bunch of allies, you ride around the country saying I am your king peasants and kills anyone who disagrees. People who first sees him say, “what’s a king” then he simply says, it means that I rule all this land. So i have been building my house in your land? Yes you did and so let me tax you for staying here but don’t worry As your king I won’t let anyone take your house. See these men riding with me? They’ll kill anyone who would try that. just keep giving me this amount of gold per month so you can continue to stay in my land and be protected. And the man will say, thank you king. You’re the best. Now I won’t have to worry about getting raided by barbarians.
Right. Or you can loan money to a struggling kingdom and seize it when they can't pay you back.
By the way, i'm confused by that "dictators seize power with force, monarchs inherites power from their family", then goes on to say "North Korea got a dynasty of dictators".
Nobody even seized power with force in DPRK, the first Kim, Kim Il Sung was appointed by Soviet Union.
There's clearly some logical fallacy in that
@@giacomoneri1782Yeah you're right. North Korea is a basically a monarchy it just has the dressing of a dictatorship with the use of propaganda and being a police state. Not saying they're not evil but I think the idea of calling them dictators is a bit of propaganda we've been served to delegitimise their rule.
Similarly the British Monarchy, suppressed and invaded many counties and yet they aren't considered evil.
Truth: what is one man's terrorist is the opposing side's freedom fighter.
The greater propaganda defines the person being a terrorist or a freedom fighter.
Great content man i hope you see an explosive growth, your subscribers and views don't do justice with the quality of your content
Thank you so much! Maybe one day! :)
I loved this video! Everytime you make a video i wonder... why this channel doesnt have at least 500k subscribers
Thanks! Really nice of you to say. I want to get there someday.
Thank you for this basic insightful information. Gray job👍🏿
You are welcome! I’m glad you found it to be helpful!
Awesome video there
Thank you! I appreciate it.
Excelent video. Can you make want about Polibius' cycle of perfect and imperfect government?
Interesting! I have not heard of that. I’ll have to check that out!
PLEASE SUBSCRIBE to support more educational videos like this one! Thanks in advance! :)
I just came here from Kaiser vs' video on dictatorship vs democracy.
I honestly think humanity isn't ready for democracy.
Right on point
Democracy failed...
@Mountain Dew Baja Blast
I would say Monarchism became obsolete as humanity progressed in technology, science, and culture.
Which is better than saying it has failed.
Great video, I always thought monarch was a form of dictatorship.
Thanks for watching. It’s definitely interesting to compare these two.
Unpopular fact.
A Dictatorship is just a newly formed Monarchy that you don't like or agree with. Just like a Monarchy was when the first King took over by force.
A cult is just a new religion or demonination that you or your religion or denomination don't like or agree with. Just like the major world religions used to be. 🤷🏾♂️💁🏾♂️
@@SherrickDuncan you do know there are set rules for deciding if a cults a cult, right?
Digaddog you do know that said rules are arbitrarily made up and invented by the cults in power that meet the very definitions that they created of what a cult even is right?
@@SherrickDuncan your logic is flawed, I recommend you search for truth in life and reevaluate a year or so from now and if that fails then do it again until you reach the orthodox church, then youl understand
Wait can you do monarchy and democracy difference?
Thomas Garrigue Masaryk was a sort of dictator. However, he used his power for people.
The way I see it they’re the same. Absolute power is absolutely dangerous. Maybe one defense is the way a military dictator rises to power makes them more likely to act like a tyrant.
Thanks dude! I’m workin on a story that has a monarchy but I didn’t know the real rules Lmao-
Good
Monarch is from family bloddline and dictator is from elected person declared as dictator
Monarchism the best system in the world that works more than 3000 years
True if it was a bad system it wouldnt last 3000 years also its natural with human nature while democracy and oligarchy not necessary
@@Mr-Weiss dictatorship is the best form of government since it doesn't have an incompetent family as rulers but a powerful politician who knows how to rule
@@moustachio05 the problem is who will take care of state after dictator pass away and hereditary monarchs were usually learned from the early life how to rule a country
We need.
SEMI DEMACRATIC THEOCRACY.
CONSTITUTIONAL MONARCHY.
RESTRICTED Leader and SEMI restricted people.
@@JTL1776 Thats still better system then what we have now. In Poland at least
I think every dictatorship should have the Roman salute (the salute fascist Italy, Nazi Germany and Nationalist Spain used) it makes them look awsome.
@@hureian6212 It just gives dictatorial societies an “omf” feeling into it. Whenever I think of dictatorships I often see the citizens and the leaders doing the Roman salute.
Actually more than the ruling system, the ruler, his officials should be good
Try to put more subtitles. Romanian for example😂❤
We need a monarch-constitutional republic
Why can’t I be both?!
Is there such thing where monarchs are elected by vote and not chosen by bloodline?
Actually, there a something called Malaysia and Cambodia
The concept of an elected monarchy, has been thought of, and done but question why do you want an elective monarchy? What are the limits of said monarch? Given the monarch supreme authority, would probably end in a monarchy based off of children for reasons or perhaps you want an elected monarch with limited power then you practically have a president who is just called a king or a queen what’s pointless the only real difference I can see is they may be an office for the rest of their life
@@spoonstraw7522 this was an old comment I made clearly I want thinking fully enough
I guaranteed if you said china under dictatorship instead of north korea your channel would’ve been flagged
Probably true...
What about no state at all?
Anarchism
Honestly, though anarchism is stupid, someone will always want power and that will naturally end in a state maybe you could make a state whose only purpose is to stop another state from taking its place but there are some serious hurdles. You have to get over such as how would this state get funds ,who controls it, and how does the state enforce anarchism all these questions might seem straightforward, but normal answers would just end at best some weird democracy at worst a military dictatorship I could think of some ways around this, but I think the state is necessary as long as humans exist what do you think?
@@spoonstraw7522
Anarchism would work better in a small group or community definitely not a nation size. But anarchy would work for only a short time until someone will take power thru force or public opinion.
Monaco is a good example of a monarchy that exists today. I think the UK isn't a good example as the power of the monarch has been massively reduced. I'd also argue that North Korea is more of a monarchy as its under a dynasty and the title is inherited, its in some kind of grey area though.
Dictators had and have more power than monarchs. Monarchs who tried to rule with absolute powers had their heads roll or got exiled. So those who say a monarchy is a dictatorship really need to learn their history. Their heads wouldn't have rolled if they had the absolute authority that a dictator has.
Rip to Queen Elizabeth once again

Based. Love Monarchy.
The difference between liberalism and progressive, maybee???
That’s a good one! I’ll have to do that one sometime.
Soooo... what kind of monarchy did the byzantine empire have then? I hear it was an autocracy. You say the monarch inherits the throne, while dictators get it through coups d'etat. Well... the byzantines had it both ways. So what were they? :))
Edit: the byzantines or romans. Same thing, let's agree to disagree.
Well, the byzantine empire was a monarch in whatever the matter was. You see, the monarch stays on the throne for life and in byzantium when a new king takes over through coup, they still remain king by *right* untill abdication or death.
In dictatorships, its not really like that. Dictators may actually be part of a political party which might remove them, or perhaps the dictator is actually a leader of a de-jure democratic nation but has taken absolute power through corruption (examples: belarus)
In monarchies, there is nothing like that. Its always "you took over as the king and you will always be the king"
In dictatorships its more like "you took over... How long are you staying?"
Or at least, thats what i think. I might be completely wrong
@@ObliviAce so it was a monarchy, an autocratic monarchy. I mean... i think Louis the 14th was the model of an absolute monarch. Which made me curious, since the byzantines, when still at their peak, had absolute monarchs every time. Towards the end, the emperor was barely a title. But for instance, Basil II was an autocrat. And while his rule was contested, he stayed in power for about 50years.so... does autocrat mean absolute? If so, why does the west see Louis as the embodiment of absolutism, when the byzantines had this type of monarchy long before? My mind just gets error messages because i cannot understand this problem :))
Monarchy is the best, most virtuous, and most stable political system there is. I would support a certain kind of dictatorship as some sort of transitionary phase however.
A sort of dictator like Dollfuss or Franco is what i am referring to.
@@bbseal6174 Who do you seek to exterminate...
@@endloesung_der_braunen_frage i beg your pardon
@@bbseal6174 Franco killed loads of people is what he’s trying to say I believe
@@doncorleole2356 I suppose he did kill political advisories. So does the USA. Its not the same the thing, but i don't see what this has to do with exterminating anyone.
Even though you can say they’re different….Truthfully they’re really the same haha
This is a strange idealistic view of Monarchism. Makes it look like a "nice dictatorship" when 99 times out of 100 that is not true.
Authoritarianism and hierarchy are cringe
You, Sir, are based, and deserve many bitches🧐
Republic and democracy usage
Basically, dictators are babies who willgrow to become monarchs... if they are able too
Absolute power? You mean unlimited power!
Monarchy is better my opinion
Nah man Hail Cesar
Why does monarchy sound better
All Kings are Dictators but not all Dictators are Kings.
What about constitutional monarchies?
Monarchy like Macedonia with Alexander the Great Macedonian
Sooo persian empire than.
The idea of democracy was way back from ancient greece. But America , United states of America brought the ideal government form that almost every nation now applied...the democratic country...the people's choice not by their royalty shit hahaha
Best countries are monarchy: Denmark, norway, Sweden, UK, Australia, Canada, belgium, Japan, netherlands
But it's supreme authority is with the elected body (Atleast in my country it is like that)
The nordic nations are a complete shitshow.
Spain is better than italy and France when it comes to democracy.
Idiot, they are not monarchy, they use democracy
You might want to forget all the racism and xenophobia though... me as a white guy living in the Belgium finding out whole my life different words for the word monkey isn't a great look. Also having colonies and doing human zoo's in the 60s
Monarchy and dictatorship is same but different Gouvernement.
I don't want a completely republicanized world that would be horrible. I personally am in favor of the monarchical system and opposed to the republican one, especially the presidential republic, because it almost smells like an absolute republic aka dictatorship
A monarchy can be a dictatorship too
@@TheThedisliker let's say that in some countries you would be absolutely right, but not in europe
@@francescovilla2973 well yes it does actually, in two countries, in Lichtenstein and the papal states. So far these absolute monachists are behaving well but so can dictators do too.
@@francescovilla2973 also Monaco, just to add to the list.
@@francescovilla2973 in democratic monarchies the royal family are only ornumental and serve no purpose, especially when we have a world when people get their job for their skills, not which family they were born from.
Monarchy is the best when it’s ruled by a good family and good leader. Any form of government can be corrupted and will be corrupted in this fallen broken world though. Jesus is the only perfect king.
Well you don’t know that until you’ve been actually ruled by him
In short:
- people who like democracy say: dictatorship
- people who dislike democracy say: monarchy
There is a lack of technical and historical truth in this video. 1) All monarchs are dictators but not all dictators are monarchs. 2) Both are Autocracies.
I wish Saudi did actually comply with Sharia, it would be a lot better.
