Who rules Liechtenstein?
Liechtenstein is a constitutional monarchy, meaning a prince is the head of state, but a constitution limits his powers. Hereditary Prince Alois currently governs, and the recent change means his eldest child, whether male or female, will eventually succeed him. This blend of tradition and modern governance is common in European monarchies.
