The world's oldest monarchy currently in existence is in Japan. Founding date: c. 660 BC.

The first monarchy to exist however, would be what archaeologists discovered in Qustul prior to the building of the Aswan dam in the 1970s

Bruneians are proud to have the world's oldest reigning monarchy and centuries of royal heritage. At the helm of the only remaining Malay Islamic Monarchy in the world, the Sultan of Brunei comes from a family line that dates back over 600 years to 1405 when the first Sultan ascended the throne, founding a dynasty of which the current Sultan, His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah, is the 29th ruler.
