A king who didn't do anything for his people and who betrayed his country was viewed as useless, so the people of France decided to get rid of the king. He was sent to the guillotine, ending his reign.  The emergency dictatorship of the Committee of Public Safety was then allowed, under the leadership of Robespierre, Marat, and Danton.  These leaders were radical and willing to use power for more than just defense of their country.  Although the country of France was able to get rid of the King, the problems and the revolution continued.  Today, France continues to experience poverty and violent mob behavior.

Answerman is a bit off on the question here, since a monarchy is a form of government and might have very little to do with his statement.\n\nA government is essentially a body of rulers who make decisions for the society they govern.  Usually these decisions are ones that an individual of the society cannot or should not make by themselves because of their education, caste level, ect.  A good example of this is crimes against an individual.  If we allowed everybody to make the decisions on how to punish someone who committed a crime against them, the amount of homicides would probably be up.  In this example, the government makes the decision, creating an objective view to the crime.\nDepending on the type of government, the control can be from only one person (monarchy) to, theoretically, every member of the society (perfect democracy), and usually depends on the education and technological level of the society.  For example, a democracy would not have worked back in the 12th century, because most people were not and could not be educated up to a level to make a significant rational choice, which left the smaller educated class of king and higher subjects to rule.

When the king feels a disorder going on, he has the right to declare a state of emergency. That will clamp down on the violence and to restore order to the streets. The order will be strictly enforced; if anyone violates the order, they will be subject to arrest and imprisonment. Sufficient?

Long story short,  King Gyanendra has taken controll of the country and said that he has absolute power, limited speech and other liberties due to the comunist threat imposed by opposition rebels and to stop corruption.  People are protesting his rule, saying it is nondemocratic and that he needs to step down and open the government up to elections.

Well, the Pope is head of the catholic church and a King would be head of the country. Unless you are in the vatican city which is a secular state where the pope lives and takes on the lead role of the vatican city also (considered I think the smallest country in the world)  \n\nI one time during many years ago the pope did head up a larger territory in the area but was once exhiled. Then later returned to the vatican where it became a secular state.\n\nA king rules over a country, and some countries kings/queens is also head of the religion in that country.\n\nSo you could say the Pope is on equal footing (since he is head of the vatican city with a secular state) also with a wide reaching power into also heading up the world catholic church.

Japan's head of government is actually not a King but a Prime Minister, who is currently Junichiro Koizumi.  Japan also has an emperor, who acts more or less like a diplomat, and mostly serves in ceremonal events.  \n\nThe Netherlands head of government is also a prime minister by the name of Jan Peter Balkenende.  If monarchy is what interests you, the Netherlands doesn't have a king, but a queen; Queen Beatrix.\n\nAs for your last question, I don't know...

God has given authority to governments and officials to govern the people honorably. They are given a sacred trust. If this trust is broken through tyrannical rule or wickedness, that King (official) will have to answer to God for the disobedience of the trust that was given them.\n\n12It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness.

Malaysia is not a 'country'as such, it is a collection of smaller ones. There is, therefore no king or queen. There is a presidency however. The currrent president is Yang di-Pertuan Agong. In the last two decades, Malaysia has undergone tremendous growth and prosperity, and has arguably made significant progress in race relations. Many attribute the country's success to the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Mahathir bin Mohammed, who has led the country since 1981.

Parliamentary government is a form of democracy found in many countries.\n\nIn a parliamentary government the head of government, often styled the Prime Minister or Premier, is the leader of the party or coalition of parties who is able to win a majority vote within the parliament. In such governments the Head of State can be either an hereditary Prince (as in the United Kingdom), a President elected directly by the people (as in France), or a President or other official elected by the Parliament (as in Italy).\n\nBecause the head of Government is chosen based on his or her ability to create and maintain a majority in the Parliament, it is possible for the head of Government to change without an election by the people.
