8. How does different Monarchies govern?
In The british these are how some Monarchies govern
King John: In the 1215’s, the Manga Carter was sign into law by
King John.The Manga carter was like a great paper that puts limit on the
english monarchs.Once King John signed the Manga Carter,even he
needs to follow it.
If the citizens/barons give King John money in the olden days, the King
will protect them, give them land rights and will get more soldiers.
Queen Elizabeth1: Queen Elizabeth1 wants all the citizens to listen to her
and they can’t disagree,but Queen Elizabeth1 made peace in the
country.Since Queen Elizabeth1was smart and well educated, she was
good at choosing advisor for advice.
Queen Elizabeth 2: Queen Elizabeth govern by visiting other countries,
donating to the charity and she represents England.

9. Central Idea
System of Governance affect people’s lives in Varying degree.
System of governance does affect people’s lives in varying degree.
1) For example,In the olden days in Britain, The Monarchies rules the
countries, make the laws and some Monarchies tell the citizens that
they have to listen to them, and if they don’t something bad will
happen. Now a days in a british monarchy, the Queen or King job is to
represent their countries and there role is ceremonial.
2) For example, In a communism country, the citizens will have the
same amount of everything.So imagine the government gives you the
same amount of everything to the rich and poor.You get the same
amount of food,money,living and everything.
