Oligarchy is a form of power structure in which power rests with a small number of people. These people may be distinguished by nobility, wealth, family ties, education or corporate, religious or military control. 

Theocracy is a form of government in which a deity is the source from which all authority derives. The Oxford English Dictionary has this definition: 1. a system of government in which priests rule in the name of God or a god.

A republic is a form of government in which the country is considered a "public matter", not the private concern or property of the rulers. The primary positions of power within a republic are not inherited.
