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

Those are both incorrect statements.

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.)
