systemd is hardly monolithic as it is build of over 80 binaries. A normal system with systemd runs at least four processes: systemd (PID1), systemd-udev, systemd-journald and systemd-logind. There's various smaller services that are run on startup and other occasions. Then there are many configration utilities like timedatectl (systemd-timedated), hostnamectl (systemd-hostnamed) and localectl (systemd-localed).
