| - Constitutional Monarchy is a government type in Empire: Total War.
- Constitutional Monarchy involves a monarch who shares powers with a parliament or congress of representative individuals. It is seen foremost today with figures such as regents and elected kings or queens. This is the most persistent type of government seen at this time in Renaissance Kingdoms, with most sovereigns serving long terms as King or Queen and there have also been elected Regents even in times of Absolute Monarchy or the transition period. The Constitutional Monarchy can be seen in the Kingdom of England with it's Parliament consisting of all County Council members throughout the Kingdom, and then the elected Sovereign who coerces with the Dukes and Duchesses, and under them the Mayors, to govern over-all national policy. There are some arguments and causes for change however, as some say the current County Council member qualifications for Parliament can create sectionalist factions.

Where a monarch holds absolute power, it is known as an absolute monarchy, and law within an absolute monarchy can often be quite different from law within a constitutional monarchy. Today, constitutional monarchy is almost always combined with representative democracy, and represents theories of sovereignty which places sovereignty in the hands of the people, and those that see a role for traditions in the theory of government. Though the king or queen may be regarded as the head of state, the Prime Minister, whose power derives directly or indirectly from elections, is head of government. Although current constitutional monarchies are mostly representative democracies, this has not always historically been the case. There have been monarchies which have coexisted with constitutions which were fascist (or quasi-fascist), as was the case in Merité Commonwealth, or those in which the government is run as a military dictatorship, as is the case in Zartania. Some constitutional monarchies are hereditary; others, can be elective monarchies like Namuria and Feniz.

Cascadian monarchism may indicate a desire to join Cascadia into the British Commonwealth, with the British (Canadian) royal family as sovereign. Cascadian monarchism may also be a movement to create a distinct Cascadian royal family, either by adopting a cadet branch of an existing royal family, or establishing a royal line independent of already existing royal lineages.
