Impossible to measure.  Your answer is most likely a country with no central government.  There are African nations that are eternally in governmental flux as power is shifted amoungst rival warlords.

This looks like a Middle School homework question.\n\nIn the US, Australia, Canada, Germany and Switzerland, the federal government is the national government. The national government is responsible for defense, foreign policy, etc.\n\nIn the US, Australia and Germany, the state governments come under them; Canda terms these provinces, Switzerland calls them cantons. These divisions have tremendous powers reserved to them, unlike more unitary states  such as France, Ireland or Austria.

First, who is the "Average" South African? With apartheid ended, does it remain that "economically" the "white" middle or upper class citizen is still considered to be the "average" or "typical" citizen.\n\nBy the way, I am not some radical, militant. I'm an old-fashioned WASP (that's white, Anglo-saxon, Protestant!)\n\nNow, to the question!\n\nAny population group (whether it be South African or Icelander's) can benefit from the internet as it brings them into a global community that increases them intellectually, socially and economically!\n\nI have only to look at the "dumb" position that my own government took around 30 plus years ago when we refused to acknowledge the People's Republic of China. I still don't agree with their system of government BUT how can you pretend that a third of the earth's population doesn't exist? Now that's dumb!\n\nAnyhow, growth in this world depends on "Information" and knowledge. Hence the term IT (Information Technology). GO South Africa!!!

A constitution is a system, often codified in a written document, which establishes the rules and principles by which an organization is governed. In the case of nation states, this term refers specifically to a national constitution, which defines its nation's fundamental political principles and establishes the power and duties of each government. Most national constitutions also guarantee certain rights to the people. Historically, before the evolution of modern codified national constitutions, the term constitution could be applied to any important law.\n\nConstitutions are found in many organizations. They are found extensively in government, at supernational (e.g. United Nations Charter), national (e.g. Constitution of the United States), and sub-national/provincial (e.g. Constitution of Maryland) levels. They are found in many political groups, such as political parties and pressure groups, including trade unions (labor unions). There are many non-political groups and entities that may have constitutions of a sort such as companies and Voluntary organisations.

If it were simple it wouldn't be an exam question.  \n\n(I'd write about specifics, and say the impact of colonial rule depends on the nature of the colonial power and rule, and the people who implemented it, and on the society and peoples on whom the rule was imposed.  Fopr instance, there were great differences in the forms of colonialism practiced in Africa by Britain, France and Belgium. In almost every case colonialism introduced "modern" practices for good and ill, and creaated gerrymandered countries which intensified conflict between incompatible local societies.)

Most US states have their own constitutions, just like the American Constitution.  The Constitution defines the state or country as an entity and is the foundation of the laws of the country or state.  They usually define the basic rights of the citizens and the workings of the government.

An assembly defined by a constitution. A written constitution is essential to limited government if it is carefully and well written.  Limited government that protects life, property and liberty will serve the the citizens of Nepal best.  England relies on an unwritten constitution governed by English Common Law, but generations are required to develop good government that way.  A written constitution based on the above parameters will create immediate benefits for all.

The primary role, responsibility and purpose of the army is clearly stated in the US Constitution.  \n\nTo defend and protect the nation.\n\nSimple answer, yes but accurate.\n\nToday there are so many other requirements placed on the army it would be easier for you to review the information yourself.  Here are a couple of sites you can check.\n\narmy.com\nmilitary.com\narmy.mil\nglobalsecurity.org\nusarmy.com

Right now? It's defined by all sorts of clauses and such, it SHOULD be defined by a constitution, but since that hasn't been ratified, I really can't tell you exactly how it works.\n\nHowever, I think what is practiced now, is identical to what is in the constitution, so you could read up on that (don't worry, it is an easy read). I can't remember, and I think it in practice is useful for voicing Europe-Wide views in different political alignment separate from "national" interests.

"We the people, in order to form a more perfect Union, establish justice and ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty, to ourselves and our posterity do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America"\n\nTranslation:  We're making this constitution for us and our children, in order to: \n1. create a new country \n2. figure out how we're going to pass laws \n3. defend ourselves and create a national army \n4. help people live in safety and health \n5. make sure we all keep certain freedoms\n\n"Freedom" is easy to create.  The problem is how to make it last, and the writers of the constitution did a pretty good job, more or less.
