   @evan No maximum. #ElizabethII ruled for 70 years. Not all glorious years, alas, but not really her fault.

   As for PMs, they're mostly outworn after about ten years.

     @mpjgregoire so, I think the distinction here is between the "head of state" and the "head of government".

     I guess the question doesn't specify which I meant, except in the implication that there might be some limit possible, which isn't the case with hereditary monarchy.

     @evan If you have the right to ask ambiguous questions — and of course you do — you shouldn't be surprised when respondents give answers to questions other than what you meant.
