Do Americans know the difference between a constitutional monarchy and a republic?
That answer is simple, so how does democracy work within those two?

I rember attending a show by some unruly young chaps about my age back in 1977 and they were invoking God to save the queen.
And her fascist regime, too!.

The difference is we speak English, and they speak some sort of ancient form of it.

Well, yes, but they did learn that a tranny is just about the best thing a person can be and that math is racist, didn't they?
I have an Anglophile friend who loves your monarchy. He says it is not for the power it wields but for the power it denies to others.

How Americans preserved British English
Americans today pronounce some words more like Shakespeare than Brits do… but it’s in 18th-Century England where they’d really feel at home.

Democrats do.
A tiny few are. Young people today are smarter than any generation we've ever had.

You "rember"?
It looks like the American education system didn't cover what a head of state is!!

Simply put, the UK and the US are Representative Democracies. The only difference is, the UK has the King/Queen as head of state and the US has a President as head of state.
So a UK Constitutional Democracy and an American Republic, just means, different head of state. So the Brits will continue to vote for those to represent them in government, and Americans will continue to vote for those to represent them in government too, in Representative Democracies.

The U.K....a Constitutional Monarchy, is irrelevant to the world.
The U.S..... A republic....is a super power....keeping Europe from another world war, Russia taking control, and mass murder and genocide....

No I'm not.
So please explain in your universe.
Please explain how you don't vote for someone to represent you.
Please explain how your president is not head of state.
I've got the popcorn ready
