Answer 1

The government refers to the term that is derived from a particular word ‘govern.’ It defines a group of people that rules and controls all the activities of a nation. Government is different from politics as the government is an organization, while politics is one of the ways to manage that organization.
Politics is a process by which the government and other opposition parties make arguments on different policies to implement effective policies for the betterment of a nation. Politics, sometimes, leads to negative consequences as people may use politics for their personal interest rather than social interest.
Democracy is a form of government that describes a system in which elected candidate comes from the public, and decisions are made through voting and choose an effective decision according to the majority of the votes. On the other hand, a republic is also a form of government that describes a system where people choose a person as their representative who has the right to make decisions, according to the terms of the constitution. In the republic government, there is no use of the voting method to make decisions for the society, while in democratic government, oppositions can also participate in decision making.
