New Zealand Government

The New Zealand government operates as a parliamentary democracy within a constitutional monarchy. The Head of State is the monarch, represented by the Governor-General, while the Prime Minister leads the government. New Zealand has a unicameral parliament, meaning it has one legislative chamber, which is responsible for making laws. Citizens vote in elections every three years to choose representatives. The system emphasizes fairness and accountability, with a focus on human rights and social justice. Political parties play a crucial role in shaping policies and governance, reflecting the diverse views of the population.
