Parliamentary Republic
A parliamentary republic is a democratic system where the government is headed by a prime minister chosen from elected representatives in the parliament. The head of state (such as a president) mainly performs ceremonial duties, while the prime minister and the parliament actively govern the country. This structure emphasizes parliamentary control over executive power, ensuring leaders are accountable to elected representatives and, ultimately, to the people through their votes. Examples include countries like Germany and Italy, where the parliament’s confidence determines the government’s stability and leadership.
