Gobierno

The video tutorial explores the concept of government, defining it as the system by which a nation, state, or community is governed. It categorizes governments into three main types: autocracy, oligarchy, and democracy. Autocracy is described as a system where power is held by a single person, with examples including totalitarian dictatorships and monarchies. Oligarchy is defined as a government where power is held by a small group, with examples like China and Iran. Democracy is explained as a system where power is exercised by the people, often through elected representatives. The video concludes with a reflective question about the type of government in a school setting.
