The monarchy of Quebec and Shingoryeo is a constitutional institution and the highest office of Quebec and Shingoryeo. The monarchy comprises the reigning monarch, their family, and the members of the Royal Household, who facilitate and assist the monarch in execution of the Head of State's official, civil, diplomatic and representational duties. The current monarch of Queen Christine II, who ascended to the throne upon the passing of her father, Jacques IX, on 14 September, 2043.
Due to the vast territory of the land covered by the traditional Shingoryeoite Realms, not to mention the various polities that have ruled the area, the origin of the Shingoryeoite Monarchy is diverse and complicated. The Shingoryeoite monarchy traces its origins from the smaller chiefdoms and kingdoms of Medieval Quebec and Inteachan, which had become apparent in forms by the 12th century.
The current Kingdom of Quebec and Shingoryeo was founded by the Henri I, in 1404, under a treaty of crowns established between the First Fleets of Shin-goryeo and the local indigenous peoples of the contemporary Joongyeong area. The subsequent centuries would see the expansion of the Shingoryeoite Kingdom across the Mainland, where the Quebecois monarchs would marry and ally themselves with local royalties and sought to fuse their Koreanophone cultures with the ancient indigenous styles.
In 1731, the dynastic marriage between Alexandre I of Shingoryeo and Queen Caillech of Inteachan would merge the two kingdoms, as well as the Principality of Abitibi, to create the Kingdom of Quebec and Shingoryeo. The Union of Three Crowns, which would establish the Shingoryeoite Empire with Alexandre I and Caillech as co-regents, also coincides with the writings of the Lex Regia, the predecessor of the Royal Constitution of 1821 that would gradually reduce the political powers of the Shingoryeoite monarch.
In the so-called the Shingoryeoite Golden Age that would stretch between late 1700s and early 1900s, there was a strong flowering of industry, trades and cultural output as the Shingoryeoite Empire became a major global power. The flourishing of trades on the Blood Sea sea route between northern Atlantian Oceania and southern Rushmore, one that would be propelled by its allied nations and empires on the Vatmark sub-continent of Rushmore, would pave the way for increasing industrialisation and strong profits across its economy. Quebecois strengths on maritime exploits would also facilitate in establishment of the overseas territories and dominions across the Multiverse. Focusing on their relative territorial and economic merits, he Quebecois held limited role and left the governance to local royal/dynastical houses, who would fall under the mostly similar administrative and economic frameworks.
The 'imperial experiment' would prove to be short-lived, however, as the economic cost of the Empire had become increasingly unmanageable by the early 1900s. Following the special precedence granted to Banija and Acadiana in 1906 and 1912, the Cremieux Declaration of 1928 recognised the inevitability of the dominions of the Shingoryeoite Empire into independent countries. Over the subsequent decades, gradual independence of the dominions would follow, with the official recognition made on the Ahenakew Declaration of 1949 from the Shingoyeoite Empire to the Kingdom of Quebec and Shingoryeo. Catherine III and her successors, continuing to Christine II today, have adopted the title of the Head of the Quebecois Commonwealth.
Today, the Quebecois government is officially a constitutional monarchy, but debates remain over whether the monarch retains enough substantial powers to make over the government and its affairs.
