Today, we went over the states and capitals and decided that we need to study a lot more, and we finally did our presentations. The first project was about Dictatorships and Anarchy. An example of dictatorship would be Hitler and his Nazi party. It's when one person is control of the whole group of people. Anarchy is a state of lawlessness which in other words means there are no leaders and the country is ran pretty much on its own. An example would be Samalia (which is currently an Anarchy) another would be Japan. The next was Monarchy which is a form of government in which one person, the ruler, has all power; there are two types of Monarchy. Absolute Monarchy- isn't limited by it's law. Constitutional- title is limited to a constitution, have little or no political power.Countries with Absolute Monarchy: Brunei, Russia (until 1905), Oman, Saudi Arabia, Nepal (Until May 28, 2008).Countries with Constitutional Monarchy: United Kingdom, Spain, Thailand, Japan, Belguim.Representative Democracy- A form of democracy where people elect representatives to make deicisons for them.Ex: U.S., Australia, United KingdomDirect Democracy- where people make decisions as a whole instead of voting for someone to make them for them.Ex: Switzerland, Ancient Athens, Colonial America
