The "Government Model" refers to the framework or system through which a government operates and makes decisions. It encompasses various structures, processes, and principles that guide how power is distributed and exercised within a state. Common types of government models include democracy, monarchy, authoritarianism, and totalitarianism, each with distinct characteristics regarding citizen participation and governance. In a government model, the roles of institutions such as legislatures, executives, and judiciaries are defined to ensure checks and balances. These models can vary significantly from one country to another, influencing how laws are created, enforced, and interpreted, ultimately shaping the lives of citizens.
