Editing Constitutional monarchy (section)

== Other variants of constitutional monarchies ==
* [[Andorra]] is a [[diarchy]], being headed by [[co-princes of Andorra|two co-princes]]: the [[bishop of Urgell]] and the [[president of France]].
* [[Andorra]], [[Monaco]] and [[Liechtenstein]] are the only countries with reigning princes.
* [[Belgium]] is the only remaining explicit [[popular monarchy]]: the formal title of its [[Monarchy of Belgium|king]] is ''King of the Belgians'' rather than ''King of Belgium''. Historically, several defunct constitutional monarchies followed this model; the Belgian formulation is recognized to have been modelled on the title "King of the French" granted by the [[Charter of 1830]] to monarch of the [[July Monarchy]].
* [[Japan]] is the only country remaining with an [[Emperor of Japan|emperor]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.kunaicho.go.jp/e-about/seido/seido.html|title=The Imperial Institution – The Imperial Household Agency|website=kunaicho.go.jp}}</ref>
* [[Luxembourg]] is the only country remaining with a [[grand duke]].
* [[Malaysia]] is a [[Federation|federal]] country with an [[elective monarchy]]: the [[King of Malaysia]] (Yang di-Pertuan Agong) is selected from among nine [[States and federal territories of Malaysia|state]] rulers who are also constitutional monarchs themselves.
* [[Papua New Guinea]]. Unlike in most other Commonwealth realms, sovereignty is constitutionally vested in the citizenry of Papua New Guinea and the preamble to the constitution states "that all power belongs to the people—acting through their duly elected representatives". The monarch has been, according to section 82 of the constitution, "requested by the people of Papua New Guinea, through their Constituent Assembly, to become [monarch] and Head of State of Papua New Guinea" and thus acts in that capacity.
* [[Spain]]. [[Constitution of Spain|The Spanish Constitution]] does not recognize the [[King of Spain|Spanish Monarch]] as the ''sovereign'', but as the [[head of state]] [Section 56(1)]. It states "National Sovereignty belongs to the [[Spanish people|Spanish People]], from whom all state powers emanate." [Section 1(2)].
