	Monarch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Once again, Malaysia is an exception, as is the Vatican City (the Pope bears the title "Sovereign of the State of the Vatican City").
		Today, almost all monarchies are hereditary monarchies in which the monarchs come from one royal family with the office of sovereign being passed from one family member to another upon the death or abdication of the incumbent.
		The converse is not true however: the husband of a queen regnant is not automatically a king (e.g., the Duke of Edinburgh is not King Philip of the United Kingdom).

		Malaysia's modern history begins as a British trading colony, part of the Malay peninsula port vying with Singapore as a gateway to Asia.
		Malaysia's long history of border disputes continue today, for instance, it is involved in a complex dispute over the Spratly Islands with China, Philippines, Taiwan, Vietnam, and possibly Brunei, two islands in dispute with Singapore; Sipadan and Ligitan Islands in dispute with Indonesia, and finally, the Philippines has not fully revoked claim to Sabah State.
		Malaysia severely enforces its anti drug laws, but despite horrendously stiff penalties, the trade continues -- perhaps because of years of tradition and well armed and organized smuggling operations.
