Federal monarchy

A federal monarchy is a federation of states with a single monarch as overall head of the federation, but retaining different monarchs, or having a non-monarchical system of government, in the various states joined to the federation.

Currently, Malaysia and the United Arab Emirates are the only official federal monarchies in the world. However, Spain is often considered a de facto federal monarchy.
