Non sequitur - does not follow
Deus es machina - God by machine

We need to think about God all day because many people says that God is great or God is wonderful, but reality is not like that.


Types of Governments
Democracy- Demo=people, Cracy=rule Ruled by the people
Majority rule 50%

Democracy means ruled by people so that people vote for their governer. In U.S.A many people love democracy. They are vote himself to choose for their president.

Autocracy Government by a one person that having a lot of power. Ex) jung il Kim, Nazis

Autocracy is government by a one person who having a lot of power so he governs all people. For example Jung Ill Kim in North Korea, a governer, is who governs all country by himself.

Oligarchy rule by rule in small group of people
ex-Animal farm small group that has countrol

Monarchy - Mono=one
has a king wueen emperor
the position can be passes to their heir

Dictatorship-a country ruled by a single leader. ex:Afria one leader ruled whole tribe.


Oligarchy, Monarchy, and Dictatorship are different. Oligarchy is a country that ruled by rule. Monarchy is ruled by one person, but the position can be passes to their heir and they can have a king, queen, or emperor. Dictatorship is a country ruled by a single leader.

Anarchy is a situdation that country has no government. Anarchists are poeple who doesnt believe government.

Capotalist - people can own businesses ans property. We can take our one job.

Communist -shar everything because government has everything. it provides everybody is equal.
ex:North Krorea, China


Republic - a country has no monarch.
un elected president.

revolutionary- everyone want to change their government

Totalitarian - a counrty with only one political party. They controled everything.
pigs make every party and decided everything in Animal Farm.
