Human: Which countries still have monarchies?

Assistant: In this world there are four nations that are kingdoms. They are Spain, Thailand, Monaco, and the Vatican.  So one might say that all the humans in those nations have a monarch.  However, their monarchs do not have absolute power. In the nations of Thailand and Monaco, the monarch has the “right of nomination” to the posts of prime minister and minister. The queen of Spain has “the right of veto” over legislation, but must have it signed by the head of government before it becomes law. And the head of state in the Vatican has the title “pope”, but does not rule over his nation.  Even the head of state in the Vatican does not have absolute power, since he has to agree with the leaders of the Roman Catholic church, called cardinals.  So even in these monarchies, there are checks on the power of the monarch.
