The term 'Type of Government' can refer to two different types of government: FEDERAL and MONARCHY. FEDERAL government is a system of government in which power is divided between a central government and several regional governments. This type of government is often seen in countries such as the United States, Canada, and Mexico. MONARCHY is a form of government in which a single person, usually a king or queen, holds all the power. This type of government is often seen in countries such as the United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, and Japan.
