    You said republics are also called representative democracies. You also said the monarchy is the opposite of democracy.

    If you’re a monarchy, you’re not a republic.

    Where did I say opposite?

    I asked where did I say opposite. Not where we said same thing.

      I am not saying the same thing as you.

      You’re saying monarchy is the opposite of democracy.

      I’m saying monarchy is the opposite of republic.

      This isn’t a matter of opinion. You’re just wrong. Monarchies can be representative democracies. The UK is a monarchy and it’s a representative democracy.

      (But it’s not republic, because republic is the opposite of monarchy.)

        I’ll leave it here.
