Exploring World Governments identifies and explains different types of governments. Each book examines the social, political, religious, and cultural effects within each governmental structure’s confines as well as its impact on neighboring nations and the global community. Chapters discuss typical economic arrangements within each typeof government and how economic theories and political practice are interwoven in defining how a government operates and serves its people. This title examines theocracies in world history from the Vatican to the societies of the Aztecs, Mayans, and Egyptians to modern theocracies such as those in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, Utah Territory, Iran, and Saudi Arabia.
