| | | | | | Ali Khamenei: Encyclopedia II - President of Iran - Role in the state In contrast with most republics, the effective head of Iran's political establishment is not the president, but rather the Supreme Leader, who is a religious figure selected by an Assembly of Experts. For instance, Ruhollah Khomeini, who is perhaps the most famous Iranian leader in the West, was never president (incidentally, Ayatollah was not his first name, but a title of respect).
Despite this, Iran's president fulfills many of the classical functions of a head of state, such as accepting the credentials of ambassadors. Sinc ...

In numerous cases, two or more of the following peculiar types apply, not counting the primary duo monarchy-republic.
In a monarchy, the monarch is the head of state. This is a relatively recent phenomenon; until the last few decades a sovereign was seen as the personal embodiment of the state, and therefore could not be head of themselves (hence many constitutions from the ...
