The monarchy of Mascylla, officially the Monarchy of the Crowned Republic of Mascylla and colloquially known as the Mascyllary monarchy, is the monarchical and upmost constitutional institution of the Crowned Republic of Mascylla. A hereditary and constitutional monarchy in essence, it has ruled Mascylla since its inception in 1793, but after the Mascyllary Revolution in 1924 it has been transformed into a ceremonial monarchy under a parliamentary system. Current monarch and second historical queen is Dorothea I of the House of Ahnern since November 25th 2005. She and her close relatives execute a number of official, unofficial, representative and ceremonial duties and roles in Mascylla and abroad.

By the 19th century, Mascylla had developed into an united nation state following the War of the Five Kings and the peace negotiations of the Treaty of Langquaid that followed it. The historical rivalry between the monarchies of Aldia backed by the Elbgau Confederacy and Adwhin concluded with an Aldian victory, absorbing the remaining independent states and proclaiming their king, Lukas I, as Mascylla's monarch and effectively founding the Ahnern royal dynasty. The monarchies of each state within Mascylla were continued however, now under the supervision of the Aldian state. Over the next century, the monarchy ruled the Mascyllary Kingdom albeit with increasing authority and civil dissatisfaction. Culminating in the Mascyllary Revolution in 1923, the monarchy was dissolved at first and then radically reshaped, with the liberal Maximilian I as its figurehead. The fragmentation of the monarchy's powers enabled the foundation of a representative democracy as a parliamentary republic, which continues to rule Mascylla today. While the monarchy and its family is politically indecisive, they retain their cultural and symbolic significance as the country's traditional representatives while enjoying large public popularity.

While the queen has the rights and powers of a constitutional monarch, she does not usually exercise them by herself due to the common law of her two predecessors, but instead relies on the Reichsrat, Reichssenat and Kronenrat for policymaking, therefore making her a de facto parliamentary monarch as opposed to her role in the Constitution.
