"In its practical working from year to year, the Commonwealth is, and each State also continues to be as a State what it was as a colony, a Crowned Republic, i.e. a community monarchical in its form, but republican in its spirit and operation, and indeed more democratic than many republics are."
Ceremonial Monarchism (CerMon), also referred to as Crowned Republicanism (CrownRep), is a Non-Quadrant political ideology and the most common form of monarchism today. In a ceremonial monarchy, the monarchy is limited to only ceremonial functions (occasionally also emergency functions), while actually running the country is left up to someone else, usually, but not always, the parliament and the head of government.
History
At the end of Queen Victoria's reign, the British Monarchy's power diminished and became a ceremonial monarchy. Now the British Parliament and the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, and their equivalents in Commonwealth realms, do all the heavy work. All the ceremonial monarchies today are: 
Antigua and Barbuda, 
Australia, 
The Bahamas, 
Belgium, 
Belize, 
Cambodia, 
Canada, 
Denmark, 
Grenada, 
Jamaica, 
Japan, 
Lesotho, 
Luxembourg, 
Malaysia including the 9 Malay states with a monarch, the 
Netherlands, 
New Zealand, 
Norway, 
Papua New Guinea, 
Saint Kitts and Nevis, 
Saint Lucia, 
Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, 
Solomon Islands, 
Spain, 
Sweden, 
Tuvalu and the 
United Kingdom, with Sweden and Japan constitutionally forbiting the monarchy from having any role in government.

Queen Elizabeth II - You were a great influence upon me, Lizzie. Rest in peace, Queen!
The Shogunate - He lets me dress like an emperor and have very nice things, but the Shogun is the one in control.
Ittihadism - Mehmed V left the ruling to the CUP. WW1 and the Armenian genocide are not my problem, I just sit on a throne.
Ustasism - Same with Tomislav II (at least until 1943). Again, WW2 and the Holocaust are not my problem either, he didn't even stay in Croatia.
Parliamentarianism - I'll let you do your thing. Even if you f*** up.
Apoliticism - I don't really care for politics. I just want to sit on a throne and have fancy things. Maybe I will hire you as my cook?

Illegalism - Can you stop stealing my crown!?
Meritocracy - But I don't wanna work! :(
Showa Statism - Say hello to 1947 constitution. Although, Emperor Yoshiro from Red Alert 3, is pretty much a ceremonial monarch, since during in his free times, he loves to practice with his katana, cultivating his Bonsai trees and practicing traditional calligraphy as well.
Presidentialism - Not only do you want a republic, but you also want the head of state to have power.
Autocracy - Also wants the head of state to have actual power, and is not explicitly monarchist.
