government

The government is an entity inside a nation (or in the case of federations, a lesser being) that is tasked for running said entity. In forms such as democracy, the government is chosen by the people, while other forms can hold more tyrannical leanings, in which a small amount of the population runs the nation.
" let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us " - Franklin Delano Roosevelt, July 9th, 1938, Marietta Ohio
