Most dictators try to pass down their power to one of their sons. So what is the practical difference?

ChatGPT, What is the difference between a dictator and a monarch?

ChatGPT said:
The main difference between a dictator and a monarch lies in how they come to power, how their authority is viewed, and how their rule is legitimized:

Origin of Power
Monarch: Inherits power, typically through a royal bloodline. Monarchies are often hereditary — the position passes from parent to child (e.g., kings, queens).

Dictator: Gains power by force, manipulation, or emergency political situations — often not inherited. A dictator may seize control through a coup, war, or suspension of constitutional processes.

Legitimacy and Tradition
Monarch: Power is usually seen as traditional or divine (e.g., “divine right of kings”) and often accepted culturally or religiously.

Dictator: Power is often based on control, fear, or the claim of protecting the nation. Their rule is usually outside or above legal norms.

Duration and System
Monarch: May rule for life and pass on the throne. Monarchies can be absolute (full power) or constitutional (limited by law or parliament).

Dictator: Rules indefinitely, often without legal succession. Tries to hold power as long as possible, often removing term limits or dissolving elections.

Political Structure
Monarch: Often part of a monarchical system, which may be stable and long-standing (e.g., UK, Saudi Arabia).

Dictator: Usually dominates a republic or former democracy, where legal and democratic systems are dismantled or overridden.

Example Comparison
Monarch: Queen Elizabeth II — constitutional monarch with no governing power.

Dictator: Adolf Hitler or Kim Jong-un — wields totalitarian power through coercion and control.

In summary:

Monarchs inherit and rule by tradition or law (sometimes symbolic).

Dictators seize and rule by force or manipulation, often dismantling the law.
