In European history, monarchy was the prevalent form of government throughout the Middle Ages, only occasionally competing with communalism, notably in the case of the maritime republics, the Swiss Confederacy and San Marino. In the early modern period (1500–1800 CE), republicanism became more prevalent, but monarchy still remained predominant in Europe until the end of the 19th century.
