THE FORMATION OF GOVERNMENTS CHAPTER 1 SECTION 2

GOVERNMENTS Each government developed from its own unique situations. Most governments include smaller divisions of that government. Ex) provinces, states, counteis, cities, towns and villages.

Government Systems Unitary system gives all key powers to the national, or central government. Ex) Great Britain, France and Italy

Federal System Government divides powers between national and state (or provincial governments). Ex) United States, Canada, Switzerland, Mexico, Australia, India, and Russia.

Our Federal System in the Courts

Confederacy Loose union of independent states.

Constitution A plan that provides rule for government. 1) Sets out ideals that the people bound by the constitution believe in and share. 2) establishes the basic structure of government and defines the government’s powers and duties.

Constitutional Government A government in which a constitution has authority to place clearly recognized limits on the power of those who govern. The constitution in such a government LIMITS the government’s power. US Constitution 1787 replaced Articles of Confederation.

Be careful! Just because a government has a constitution does not mean it limits their power! Ex) China

Incomplete Guides Constitutions are incomplete guides. State’s rights, individuals freedoms are still fought over today. Always does not reflect acutal practice.

All men are created equal??

Preamble The beginning of a constitutions “We, the people of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
