A.

How do the two systems of Democracy differ as far as branches of government


are concerned?
It is different in so many ways the legislature holds supreme power. The prime
minister is chosen by the members of the legislature. The cabinet members
must also belong to the legislature.
If the prime minister loses the support of the majority in the
legislature on a significant vote, he or she must resign, and elections are called immediately.
In the United
States, elections are held at fixed intervals, in Britain and other parliamentary
countries, they may occur at any time, the only restriction being that they must
be held at least once every five years.



B. Regarding elections, how do the systems compare?
The two systems are similar in election because the president is elected
by the people while the prime minister is elected by the parliament which
are representatives of the people. In a parliamentary government the
people vote for the parties vote of the president. Both leaders are
elected and both are limited power that must be shared by the congress
or the parliament.

C. Do their leaders share similar terms in office? Explain in
complete sentence format.

Both leaders have the same term length, but the prime minister
can run for as many times as he or she want. But the president
can only run for 2 terms at most.


D. What are the "advantages" of each system of government? [at
least two each]
The presidential system has direct elections by the people, stability, and
since the president has a lot of power he can make decisions fast and
decisively. In a parliamentary government legislative actions are passed
more quickly and it is easier to remove a bad leader from power.

E. Identify a disadvantage" of each system.

Disadvantages are that it is difficult to remove a president of
power early and due to the separation of powers it is harder to pass
policies or laws. The disadvantages of a parliamentary system are that
people dont know who the prime minister is that they voted for.
