Color-coding

English:

• orange — parliamentary republics
• green — presidential republics, executive presidency linked to a parliament
• yellow — presidential republics, semi-presidential system
• blue — presidential republics, full presidential system
• red — parliamentary constitutional monarchies in which the monarch does not personally exercise power
• magenta — constitutional monarchies in which the monarch personally exercises power, often (but not always) alongside a weak parliament
• purple — absolute monarchies
• brown — republics where the dominant role of a single party is codified in the constitution
• beige — states where constitutional provisions for government have been suspended
• grey — countries which do not fit any of the above systems

Note that several states constitutionally deemed to be multiparty republics are broadly described by outsiders as authoritarian states. This chart aims to represent de jure form of government, not de facto degree of democracy. Those more interested in a version reflecting such judgements may be interested in Image:Form of government with Freedom House.png.
