Monarchy vs Democracy Concepts

The video tutorial discusses two main types of government: monarchy and democracy. In a democracy, power is given to the government by the people through elections, and the government must explain and defend its actions to the citizens. In contrast, a monarchy is ruled by a king or queen who holds decision-making authority, and their actions do not need to be explained to the public.
