I am going to compare Germany and Iran.

Iran, on the other hand is a theocracy: a country ruled by the members of the clergy. It can also be named an oligarchy: the power is with a few members of the society.

I am going to compare the government of India and the United States.

I am going to discuss the similarities and dissimilarities between the government of India and the United States.

Similarities: Both the nation's government have the legislative assembly, publically elected executive branch and independent Judiciary as its three primary branches and follows Federal structure of government having authority over National and International matters including taxation, foreign policies, armed force, and currency regulation. Another similarity is that both the nation have a constitutional form of government formed by the elected representative chosen directly by the people.

Differences: The United States has congress as its legislature comprising of Senate with two House of Representatives served by 100 senators and 435 house of representatives having two years tenure while India has Parliament as its legislature comprising of President, RajyaSabha, and LokSabha. Loksabha consists of 545 members directly elected by the citizens of India for a term of five years and 245 members of Loksabha elected by the State legislative assemblies for the two years term. The President of the United States is the first person of the United States while in India Prime Minister is the first person of the government with President as constitutional head of the state.
