The word monarch (Latin: monarcha) comes from the Greek
monrches, (from mnos, , "one/singular,"
and rchon, , "leader/ruler/chief") which referred to a
single, at least nominally absolute ruler. In current usage theword monarchy generally refers to a traditional system of
hereditary rule, as elective monarchies are rare in the modern
period. We cannot find any better definition of monarchy
than what this is: a monarchy is the government which isruled by one person, who is wholly set apart from all other
members of the state's (called his subjects).

It is defined as the govern that just only gentles could
practice.
Aristocracy (Greek aristokrata, from
aristos "excellent," and kratos "power"), is a form ofgovernment in which a few elite citizens rule. The term
derives from the Greek aristokratia, meaning "rule of the
best". In origin in Ancient Greece, it was conceived of as rule
by the best qualified citizens, and contrasted with monarchy.In later times, aristocracy was seen as rule by a privileged
group (the aristocratic class) and contrasted with democracy.

Where power was in the hands of the few richest citizens.
Oligarchy (from Greek , oligarkha) is a form of
power structure in which power effectively rests with a small
number of people. These people could be distinguished byroyalty, wealth, family ties, corporate, or military control.
The word oligarchy is from the Greek words ""
(olgos), "a few and the verb "" (archo), "to rule, to
govern, to command". Such states are often controlled by afew prominent families who pass their influence from one
generation to the next.

Democracy is defines like the exercise of power by the people forthe people.
The word "democracy" (Greek: ) combines theelements dmos (, which means "people") and krtos
(, which means "force" or "power"). In the words"monarchy" and "oligarchy", the second element arche ()means "rule", "leading" or "being first". It is unlikely that the term"democracy" was coined by its detractors who rejected the
possibility of a valid "demarchy", as the word "demarchy" alreadyexisted and had the meaning of mayor or municipal. One couldassume the new term was coined and adopted by Atheniandemocrats.
