Spain has a parliamentary constitutional monarchy. According to the constitution of Spain, the King is considered as the head of the government and has certain constitutional roles that must be done. This position is hereditary; in fact, it can be inherited by daughters if a deceased king didn't have any son.

Spain became a parliamentary monarchy in a bid to put an end to dictatorship. Due to the polyethnic nature of Spain, the idea of having a king to serve as a symbol of unity became a necessity for the country in order to promote national unity. The King of Spain is the head of the government and also the commander-in-chief of the armed forces.

However, the governing roles of the king are limited since there is also a provision for the office of the President, Vice President in the constitution. Although the king still has the right to appoint or remove the President of Spain.

Spain is a country that has a long history. Before the United States was even known to exist, Spain was sending explorers to discover this new land. Like years ago in history, many countries including Spain had kings and queens. Therefore, Spain has stayed with having a monarchy for its government.
