Question 1001 · Task 1 · Government, legislation and civic participation · CCSE 2026

**In Spanish, as in the exam:** España es…

- a) una monarquía parlamentaria. (a parliamentary monarchy.) · Right answer
- b) una república federal. (a federal republic.)
- c) una monarquía federal. (a federal monarchy.)

**Right answer:** a) una monarquía parlamentaria.

## Why

The 1978 Constitution defines the political form of Spain as a parliamentary monarchy. The king is the head of state, but political decisions are made by the Government and by the Cortes (Parliament) elected by the citizens. Spain is not a republic or a federal state.
