World Governments

What types of government are in the world today?

In the State Department, geographic bureaus coordinate the conduct of U.S. foreign relations. The Department has grouped countries of the world into six areas of responsibility:

Bureau of African Affairs (AF)
Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs (EAP)
Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs (EUR)
Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs (NEA)
Bureau of South Asian Affairs (SA)
Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs (WHA)

another all-purpose place on the internet to find information is the CIA factbook

Each team will be assigned to a specific country
First, determine the bureau of the State Department that is concerned with your country.
Second, research the government of that country, determining how it can be described according to the 3 categories
Third, present a 5 minute briefing to the class, outlining the government and any interesting and/or controversial aspects of its structure. Include a visual in your briefing: an organizational chart, flag, or picture of the leader(s).
