Think of forms of government like different types of clubs. Some are run by a single person, like a boss. Others let everyone vote. Some have rules that change over time, while others stay the same. Countries pick the kind of club they want based on their history and people.
Examples
- A king rules a country like a boss running a factory.
- Some countries have both kings and elected officials working together.
