Monarchy, being the ideal form of government, provides a much more effective, stable, and organized approach towards the intricate ruling of a country. From birth the future King or Queen is bred for the throne. Rather that an elected official, the head of state in a monarchy knows what to expect and how to react in many difficult situations demanded by the position. In stead of someone who does not have any experience in heading a country, a monarchy provides someone with as much experience as possible. With this knowledge, the 'ruler' gives the country a sense of stability, knowing what they are getting themselves into and knowing that trusting them to make the right decisions is a very valid option. As Walter Bagehot said, "The best reason why Monarchy is a strong government is, that it is an intelligible government. The mass of mankind understand it, and they hardly anywhere in the world understand any other". Having the power to be able to know and trust the future ruler before they become the head of the state gives the public a stronger, more united feeling towards the government and what it can do. Also, having to rule for the duration of their lifetimes, the pressure to make the best decisions for the country and to please the people is very high; this creates the King / Queen to think their decisions through and make sure their country and people will benefit from the change. A King or Queen of a monarchy brings the best aspects of ruling a country and combines them. Monarchy, power held by a single person, is the best form of government.
