After gaining a basic understanding of our structure and form of government through the readings and discussions in this course, compare and contrast some basic elements of our government structure to those of another country. There are obviously different forms of government besides our own and some even refer to their governments as a democratic government. Writing should be in your own words! Copying an author’s words is plagiarism and will result in a ZERO for the assignment.
