Theocracy is a system of government in which the government claims that they are ruled through God and therefore have divine authority. Theocracy often motivates as either religious leaders having direct political power, a church of sort having control over state institutions or a government deliberately using religion as a justification of its existence.

History

Theocracy has always existed. It is theorised to be one of the first forms of government, with ancient countries being ruled by priest-kings.
In the east, the File:MandateofHeaven-icon.png Mandate of Heaven existed as a legitimisation of the emperors of China. File:BuddhistTheocracy-icon.png The Dalai Lama existed as an authority for Buddhism and, later in modern times, Tibet.
In the west, File:JewishTheocracy-icon.png ancient Jewish judges were determined to be File:Kritarchy-icon.png authorities through which God spoke. In the Roman Empire, emperors and nobles were often considered to be chosen by God and descendants of Gods and Demi-Gods. After it's fall, this was translated into the File:Monarchism-icon.png Divine Right of Kings, along with File:CatholicTheocracy-icon.png the Catholic Church having an immensely large control over Europe all the way until the modern period.

Contemporary Theocracies

In modern times, very few theocracies remain. It could be argued that the United Kingdom is a theocracy, as the King/Queen of the United Kingdom is also the head of the File:AnglicanTheocracy.png Church of England.
In contemporary times, File:IslamicTheocracy-icon.png Islamic Theocracy manifests itself as File:Islamism-icon.png Islamism, with notable Islamists states being File:Iran-icon.png Iran, and File:Taliban-icon.png Afghanistan post-Taliban takeover. Other Islamic countries, such as File:Syria-icon.png Syria use Islamic law. The exiled government of File:Tibet-icon.png Tibet is still a Buddhist theocracy.
