Belarus?

  I'm not sure how much that counts since my understanding is that the president's decrees are essentially laws, and when the judicial branch said that was unconstitutional the president just ignored them. Not exactly a lot of checks and balances.

    That absolutely is a (strong) Presidential Republic, a term which does not depend on checks and balances (though some Presidential Republics feature that trait.)

      I thought that in a presidential republic the head of state can't write laws themselves?
