These systems determine how power and authority are distributed, who holds control, and how decisions are made. Different government types reflect unique ways societies organize political power, such as democracies, monarchies, and dictatorships.

Several government types are common worldwide, each varying in leadership, citizen participation, and law enforcement. Examples include democracy, where people have power through voting; monarchy, where a king or queen rules; and authoritarian regimes, where a single leader or group holds significant control without much public input.
