Government: Presidential system, Liberal democracy, Constitutional republic, Federal republic
The United States currently has two major political parties: the Republican Party and the Democratic Party. Abraham Lincoln was the first President to represent the Republican Party, which was founded in 1854 by anti-slavery activists. Eighteen Republicans have served as President.
Two political parties, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. They have made a large difference in American politics since the American Civil War.
There are also smaller parties like the Libertarian Party, the Green Party, and the Constitution Party. The Whig Party and the Democratic-Republican Party were important many years ago.
The House of Representatives is comprised of 435 members. Each member represents a district within a state and serves a two-year term. Anyone who has been a resident for seven years and is at least 25 years old is eligible for a seat in the House. Each state is allowed a number of Representatives and districts based on population. For example, since 1789, Delaware has had only one Representative. California, on the other hand, currently has 53.
Each state sends two delegates to the Senate, where representatives serve six-year terms. The Senate consistently stands at 100 members.
The country’s executive branch is headed by the President of the United States. The President has executive powers, which he shares with his Vice President and his appointed Cabinet members. He is in charge of the nation’s government and must approve all laws; additionally, he is required to protect the freedoms listed in the U.S. Constitution and to decide how best to defend his country.
Before a new law can be created, it must first be passed through both the House of Representatives and the Senate. The President then has the right to sign and accept the law, or he may choose to veto it, meaning he does not accept it. Congress can then attempt to pass the law without the President’s signature, but two-thirds of the vote is required in each House.
As the country’s chief diplomat, the President is also responsible for singing treaties, while two-thirds of the Senate vote is needed to ratify the agreement. The President also has the ability to pardon criminals, among other powers.

India
Federalism
This is where the country has 2 governments:
Centre
and
State.
India is a Union of Individual States, but with a strong centre. This means that the Central government has more powers than the State government
The Parliament is made up of the
Lokh Sabha
: Council of People - The members represent the people of the country and are voted by all voters in the whole country.
Rajya Sabha
: Council of States - The members represent the various states at the centre and are voted in by the states' legislature.
All the people representiing the central government are known as the 'Members of Parliament'.
Seperation of Powers
The Government can again be divided into three parts
Legislature
- They understand the grievances of the public and make policies to eradicate them.
Executive
- The policies made by the Legislature are executed by this body.
Judiciary
- If any problem arises, it solves the issue.

UAEs National Innovation Strategy
The strategy will stimulate innovation in seven sectors where innovation is key to excellence: renewable energy, transport, education, health, technology, water and space. Its first phase includes 30 national initiatives to be completed within three years. These include new legislation, innovation incubators, investment in specialized skills, private sector incentives, international research partnerships and an innovation drive within government.
The Four Strategy Tracks
The first track will establish a stimulating environment for innovation in the form of supportive institutions and laws. It will shape specialised entities such as innovation incubators as well as technological infrastructure to fuel innovation in all sectors. It will also focus on research and development in various innovation fields.
The second track will develop government innovation by institutionalising innovative practices with the support of an integrated system of modern tools. The strategy requires all government entities to reduce spending by one per cent and dedicate the savings to research and innovation projects. National training and education programmes on innovation will also be launched.
The third track will encourage private sector innovation by stimulating companies to establish innovation and scientific research centres, adopt new technologies and develop innovative products and services. The UAE will attract pioneering international firms in key innovation sectors, establish innovation communities and zones and support applied research in areas of national priority. It will also enhance the UAE's position as an international centre to test innovations.
The fourth track will prepare individuals with highly innovative skills by concentrating on science, technology, engineering and mathematics, including the creation of educational material for schools and universities. The aim is to establish a national culture that encourages innovation and entrepreneurship through partnerships between the public, private and media sectors.

Government's Happiness Agenda
The UAE Government have implemented a new manual specifically for the happiness of the UAE. It is called the Happiness Policy Manual — the first of its kind in the world. The manual was designed by the Ministry of Happiness’s National Program for Happiness and Positivity to introduce the “science of happiness” to the policy-making process and evaluate its effect on the happiness and well-being of society.
The UAE aims to be among the happiest countries in the world, so they are working to have happiness and positivity as a lifestyle and the higher purpose of government work in the UAE. The Happiness Agenda will help the UAE to achieve their goal.
The Happiness Agenda will measure and impact people’s happiness through an iterative framework to discover, change, educate and measure people’s happiness. The way they will achieve their goal is built following a collaborative process to discover, imagine and plan for a future Dubai that prioritizes happiness as a primary objective of Dubai’s ongoing smart transformation.
The target is to make Dubai the happiest city in the world. For the UAE to achieve their target, they will harmonize government plans, programs and legislations to achieve happiness and positivity in society.
