Etymology

The term 'royalism' derives from the root word 'royal,' which relates to kings or queens, and is derived from the Latin word 'regalis' meaning 'of a king.' The support for monarchy dates back to ancient civilizations where kings were often regarded as divinely appointed. During the Middle Ages in Europe, strong royalist sentiments developed as monarchs consolidated power and their dynasties claimed legitimacy based on lineage. The ideologies surrounding royalism evolved, particularly during times of political upheaval, such as the English Civil War and the French Revolution, when the legitimacy of monarchs was fiercely debated. The concept of royalism can manifest differently, ranging from constitutional roles in modern democracies to absolute monarchies. Today, it continues to be a significant topic in countries with monarchies, influencing political discourse and national identity.
