Chapter two "Brittan"

I find it interesting how the parliamentary system works in the UK. It is alike to the United States Presidential system where people can vote for the people that they like to represent them, but from their it seems as if the parliament takes 100% control from there.  Once the parliamentarians are chosen they have control to vote for the rest of the heads of state (or the other ministries and Prime minister). This system seems better to me because it is giving a more time efficient use of power to the house of parliament. Without have to hold a public poll on every topic that comes up, people are less informed ( which is an unfortunate byproduct of this ) however more is able to be accomplished in a shorter period of time with a lower budget.

The house of parliament than posts any news on what is happening at http://www.parliament.uk. This allows the general public be aware of what is happening in their government, without the government having to advertise their every movement.

Chapter One

The idea of a modern country is hard task for less fortunate countries like Kenya to undertake. To become what we know as "A modern nation" a country must go through industrialization, urbanization and a growth in education and communication.  For countries like Kenya, the problem is not that the country does not have the funding to change their system. It is that uprooting the culture would be detrimental to the thongs that the Kenyan people sabd for. Changing a way a group of people think is the first step of destroying a culture.  As it is, things like social media are hurting the life styles of the kenyan people. They are seeing the way the americans are living and are abandoning the ways of their people.
