What kind of government?

I am doing a research project for class about different countries political systems. What kind of government do Uruguay have in place?

The current President of Uruguay is a medical doctor. He still does some work as such and does rounds at one of the hospitals.

What grade are you in, in school? I think this is a great project! How much are grammar and writing going to count in your project?

I am a freshmen in college. Yes, grammar and writing plays a big part in the project.

Wow, that's interesting! I guess the rules are different in other countries. I'm surprised that he can still hold a demanding job like being a doctor and still run the country. I see this is going to be an interesting paper.

Uruguay's politics takes place in a framework of a presidential representative democratic republic, whereby the President of Uruguay is both head of state and head of government, and of a pluriform multi-party system. Executive power is exercised by the government. Legislative power is vested in both the government and the two chambers of the General Assembly of Uruguay. The Judiciary is independent of the executive and the legislature.

You can check out online journals to get a better lead for your paper.

Voting is mandatory, I believe.
