After gaining a basic understanding of our structure and form of government through the readings and discussions in this course, compare and
contrast some basic elements of our government structure to those of another country. There are obviously different forms of government besides our
own and some even refer to their governments as a democratic government. Writing should be in your own words! Copying an author’s words is
plagiarism and will result in a ZERO for the assignment. Most of your writing should be your original thoughts; If you need to quote make sure you
use quotation marks and only quote sparsely.
Divide your paper into the following subtopics.
I. Introduction (1-2 pages)
Provide a brief background of the country you have selected to compare to ours.
Brief historical background, its people, economy, religion, etc. What is our relationship to this country (economically and politically)?
II. Constitutional Development (1-2 pages)
Provide a brief summary of how the government developed in this country you selected. This will include a brief historical discussion to
its constitutional development.
II. Government Structure (4 pages or more)
How is government structured in this country you have selected?
Executive, Legislative, Judicial, Political Parties
Make some comparisons to our structure of government.
III. Democracy (1 page)

Is this country you wrote about a democracy? Why or Why not? Discuss some elements of democracy in your comparisons.
IV. Conclusion (1 page)
What did you learn from this assignment? What stands out in your comparisons?
V. Sources (Separate page, MLA or other accepted format)
