The Law Library is pleased to announce the publication of a new Story Map: Modern Monarchies Around the World. With contributions from former interns Kate Krause and Sam Walkow, this is the 12th Story Map to join the Law Library’s collection.

The title page of the Modern Monarchies Story Map.

Each country mapped is one of three types of monarchies: absolute, constitutional, or mixed. Each pop-up on the interactive map also includes links to our Guide to Law Online: Nations of the World for further learning.

You can learn more about how these monarchies change over time through the CIA World Factbook.
