Government

Government is generally defined as the group of people responsible for controlling the affairs of a State. The Columbia Encyclopaedia defines government as “a system of social control under which the right to make laws, and the right to enforce them, is vested in a particular group in society. This definition envisages the obvious need for people to control the State and render those functiouns for which the State exists to provide.
