What distinguishes a monarchy from a democracy?
a. in a monarchy, the government has absolute power
b. in a monarchy, power is divided between national and local governments
c. in a monarchy, the government's power is extremely limited
d. in a monarchy power is inherited rather than earned

The monarchical government is different from democracy by d. inheriting the power as assets.

In a democracy, right of choosing the representative or the head of the state lies into the hands of the common public. On the other hand, a monarch gets his powers directly from the preceding monarch who mostly has a blood relation with the succeeding one. Unlike monarchy, democracy allows the most deserving individual to hold the power.

For example, the Vatican City is an example for monarchy with Pope as head and India is an example of democracy.
