Brunei and Oman are two small countries that still have sultans as part of their ruling structure. Both sultans hold significant power and authority within their respective countries.
Most countries have a bureaucracy of some form to manage government operations and services. Some examples of countries with well-known bureaucracies include the United States, China, India, and France.
Countries that do not belong to Britain include France, Germany, and Spain. These are independent nations with their own governments and territories, distinct from the United Kingdom which includes England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
Oman is seen as one of the least corrupt countries in the Middle East. Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index ranks Oman fairly well in terms of corruption levels compared to other countries in the region. However, like any country, there are still instances of corruption that may occur.
Some countries that are considered polyarchies, characterized by competitive elections, freedom of expression, and inclusive political participation, include the United States, Canada, Australia, and many countries in Western Europe.

Yes, there are still sultans in some countries today. For example, Brunei has a Sultan, as well as some regions in Indonesia and Malaysia. Sultans in modern times usually have ceremonial roles and limited political power.

Approximately 200 countries exist in the world today. The newest one is in southern Sudan (which broke away from Sudan, after a recent vote).

No, it was replaced by the M48 and M60 in the late 1960's and early 1970's. A few small and poor countries may still use M41's, but most got rid of them in the 1990's. It is hard to find information about tanks that are used in small numbers in other countries, but some possible countries that might still use them are the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Lebanon, Somalia, Spain, Tunisia, Uruguay and Vietnam. One country that FOR SURE still uses M41's is the Chinese Army. They have around 500.
