Alternative spellingsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A government is the organization, or agency through which a political unit exercises its authority, controls and administers public policy, and directs and controls the actions of its members or subjects. Typically, the term "government" refers to the civil government of a sovereign state which can be either local, national, or international. However, commercial, academic, religious, or other formal organizations are also governed by internal bodies. Such bodies may be called boards of directors, managers, or governors or they may be known as the administration (as in schools) or councils of elders (as in forest). The size of governments can vary by region or purpose. Growth of an organization advances the complexity of its government, therefore small towns or small-to-medium privately operated enterprises will have fewer officials than typically larger organizations such as multinational corporations which tend to have multiple interlocking, hierarchical layers of administration and governance. As complexity increases and the nature of governance becomes more complicated, so does the need for formal policies and procedures. From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License What are government officials, in a democratic government? Q. I'm doing this project for my Civics class. I have to create my own government. It says how will government officials be elected, and I'm using the U.S.A.'s government(democratic government) as my government. The teacher said we could pick a government or use one that already exists. To be back on track, I want to know what government officials are and if you know how are they elected.

The intent of the designers of our Democratic Republic was to place elected Government officials in positions that answered to & served the citizens. We are currently experiencing a perversion of that intent with executive & representative branches that are ignoring & actually defying the people that put them in office. A majority of the citizens of the USA are frustrated at present. Frustration is a form of anger.

Part of what I study at school in history is the Weimar republic and one of the problems faced by the republic was the issue of hyperinflation. The main reason hyperinflation occurred in the first place was because the government was pretty much bankrupt and decided to print more money, but something I've always wondered is why the government did this. I mean surely someone in the government would point out that no matter how much money they print it wouldn't make them any richer and would only lead to hyperinflation. But printing more money solves nothing. In fact, it makes things worse, surely they realised that? Asked by Richiboi - Fri Apr 30 12:02:50 2010 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. I believe they did it to avoid paying France war reparations. This was a loophole in the Treaty of Versailles, which required Germany to pay most of Europe an exorbitant sum. Hyperinflation allowed Germany to default on their reparations, relatively blamelessly.

Q. Municipal governments in Pennsylvania are now requiring landlords to mount the keys to each apartment outside the building in a "Knox Box". The city will have a key to the box and only enter one of the residential units in the event of an emergency. Personally, I'd rather they break down my door in the event of an emergency. I don't trust the cops, the fire dept., or the EMTs. Why should the government have keys to tenants homes and not homeowners homes? Asked by KRS - Fri Sep 12 20:59:01 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. I can't find any reference to a law requiring that. Do you have more specific information? I highly doubt such a regulation would be legal.
