Okay so this is probably a stupid question but oh well. so my class had a debate and i couldnt be in it so to still get a grade I am writing a paper on What is the best form of government: democracy or monarchy?. The thing is he said paper not essay. Does this mean an essay or what? Also what sort of things should I include. Do you know any good links of information for this topic or a sample. Thank You so much!

P.S I am on the Monarchy side

That still means essay. You may want to start out by writing a thesis statement, then spend several paragraphs backing up your claim, followed by a conclusion to wrap it up.
