Summary

Description
English: Monarchies, republics and ecclesiastical lands in Europe on the eve of the French Revolution in 1789.
Monarchies
Republics
Ecclesiastical lands
Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth
Free Imperial Cities are counted as republics. Ecclesiastical lands mainly consist of prince-bishoprics in the Holy Roman Empire and the Papal States in central Italy. Because the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was a mixture between an elective monarchy and a republic, and often called and categorised as both, it is rendered in purple.
