As noted some countries have an appointed president (not for life) without much power that takes a similar symbolic (head of state) role to a monarch/Governor general in a constitutional monarchy (democracy).

- anoncake 8y agoSaying the role of the German president is symbolic is a bit like saying the role of flight attendants is to sell food and drinks. He has important powers, but only in case of a crisis that would otherwise result in a dysfunctional government.
