Luxembourg is a Grand Duchy, not a kingdom. This is a very common mistake since some people think that Monarchy and Kingdom are the same thing when they are not.

So, All Kingdoms are Monarchies but not All Monarchies are Kingdoms.

You're absolutely correct. However, it is a generalization. I was aware that Luxembourg is a Grand Duchy, which I used in synonymity with kingdom.

If you want technicality, Russia is not a republic, and the Netherlands is just a part of a bigger kingdom.

Not every single kingdom is a monarchy, actually. Take the Vatican, for example.

I'll change the Luxembourg question, though. Thanks for the feedback!

Actually, Vatican is considered a monarchy (an absolute one) and Russia is considered a republic.

You still have Liechtenstein on this quiz as kingdom when it's not, it's principality.
