9. In Britain, the Queen is a constitutional monarch. In
law, she is the head of the executive, an integral part
of the legislature, head of the judiciary, commander-
in-chief of the armed forces and temporal head of the
Church of England. Actually, the Queen's role is
purely formal: she reigns, but she does not rule. In all
important respects, she acts only on the advice of
her ministers. However, she still plays an important
role symbolically as the Head of State and the Head
of the Commonwealth.
