Monarchy
In China there used to be emperors, but now they are no more. However, there are many monarchies in the world. For example, the Monarchy of the United Kingdom is a constitutional monarchy, whose territory covers one-fifth of the world. English, the language spoken by this monarchy, is the single most widely used language among all -- even Chinese speak English.
What do you think of monarchy? What do you think of the Queen? Since China does not have monarchs in modern times, I am very curious about them.

"Constitutional monarchy (or limited monarchy) is a form of government in which a monarch acts as head of state within the parameters of a constitution, whether it be a written, uncodified, or blended constitution"
Britain has a uncodified constitution so it's a Constitutional Monarchy. And as far as I'm aware, "Ma'am" is perfectly acceptable, especially used by Americans at least.

I don't think the United Kingdom has a written constitution. Without one, it cannot be described as a "Constitutional Monarchy."
My view is colored by our (U.S.) history. If I had the opportunity to meet the Queen, I think I might decline because I just couldn't bring myself to say "Your Majesty."

Nobody these days seriously believes in the monarchy. It would be gone if not for the massive revenue it brings in from tourism and estates. The monarchy of the UK can't be compared to one such as, Nepal, as nobody in Britain actually believes in the Queens divine power or any of that stuff. It's just a nice club to be a part of and pat ourselves on the back for not shooting them like so many other countries did.
