    Most modern democracies are parliamentary, actually. The US system has not been widely mimicked aside from cherry-picking a few specific details.

    Also, monarchy and democracy are not mutually exclusive. I’m Canadian, for example, which is a democratic constitutional monarchy. We still have a king but we elect our government.

      Yes, but your king is basically a mascot. If they had any actual power, your system would be less democratic basically by definition.
