1.  Pick two countries in Chapter 22 and provide an in depth paragraph on their government and how it operates.
Great Britan's government operates in a strange unorthodox manner. The house of the lords is the upper house and the house of commons is the lower house. the house of commons contains more power than the house of lords. they also have a prime minister unlike the united states.

Both of the countries have a good history in their governments and have been successful in their forms of government.

3. What are some of the differences of the countries that are in Chapter 22?
The differences are the forms of government. there are democracy and communism in the countries listed.
