Diarchy

**Diarchy** (or **dyarchy**) is a form of government where two people are usually the heads of state. The word comes from the Greek _δι-_ "two elements" and _ἀρχή_, "rule" (from ἄρχω; -αρχία is a derived suffix). The term **duumvirate** is a hyponym (from Latin duumvirātus, "male diarchy") but some people use it erroneously for women.

Historical examples Diarchies are Sparta, The Roman Republic and at one point India

## Modern diarchies

Diarchies are very uncommon in the modern day. However, there are a few that remain.

- The **Principality of Andorra** is a small country in Western Europe. The two heads of state are the Co-Princes of Andorra. As per a historic treaty, the Co-Princes are the Bishop of Urgell and the Ruler of France. The current Co-Princes are Emmanuel Macron and Joan Enric Vives Sicília.
- The **Kingdom of Eswatini** is a country in Africa. The King and his mother are the joint heads of state.

Co-Princes of Andorra

The **Co-Princes of Andorra** are the two rulers of the Principality of Andorra. Andorra is a tiny landlocked nation in the Pyrenees mountains between France and Spain. Currently, the Bishop of Urgell and the President of France are Andorra's co-princes, making the former also one of the two Roman Catholic figures to both head the church and government, the other being the Pope of Vatican City under governance of the Holy See. Coincidentially, the Pope has the power to appoint the Bishop of Urgell, a fellow head of state or sovereign as Co-Prince of Andorra politically.

## History

In 988, Count Borrell II of Urgell gave the land of Andorra to the Bishop of Urgell. In 1095, the Bishop of Urgell feared that the Count wanted to take over Andorra again. He asked for help from the Lord of Caboet. The two became co-rulers of Andorra.

Eventually, the Lord's title passed on to the Count of Foix. In 1278, it was officially agreed that Andorra's sovereignty would be shared between the Bishop and the Count. The co principality of andora is one of the remaining monarchy is in Europe

Through inheritance, the Foix title passed on to the King of France, whose position would be replaced by the President of France when it became a republic.

Scientific revolution

The **scientific revolution** was a time (15501700) after the Middle Ages and the Renaissance when many discoveries were made. During this time, new ideas and discoveries fundamentally changed the way people thought. They started what is called science today. Better printing presses after Gutenberg's time caused a great rise in publishing. This period roughly lasted from the 16th to the 18th century.

Galileo Galilei invented kinematics and disproved Aristotle's old theory of gravity. One of his students said he dropped two balls of iron (one weighing one pound, the other a hundred) off the leaning tower of Pisa. The objects fell at the same speed which brought about new methods of thinking. In 1542, Nicolaus Copernicus published his work _On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres_, in which he said that not the Earth, but the Sun was at the center of the universe. This theory is known as Heliocentrism today. In the same year, Andreas Vesalius published his work  _On the Structure of the Human Body_. This book is about the anatomy of the human body.

The philosopher Alexandre Koyré (18921964) first used the term 'scientific revolution'  for this time period.
