All the states in Malaysia except for Malacca, Penang, Sabah, and Sarawak, are monarchies. The four non-monarchical states are headed by a Yang di-Pertua Negeri. Thus, those states with monarchies have royal capitals or seats where the palace or official residence of the monarch is situated. These capitals are sometimes different from the state's administrative capitals.
