Parliamentary systems

A parliamentary system is a form of government where the executive branch (the government or cabinet) is drawn from the legislature (parliament) and depends on its support. The parliament, elected by citizens, chooses the prime minister, who leads the government. The prime minister and cabinet are accountable to parliament and can be removed through a vote of no confidence. This system promotes close collaboration between the legislative and executive branches, ensuring that government policies reflect the will of elected representatives. Examples include countries like the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia.
