Answer:
Explanation:
Saudi Arabia : The ultimate power is in the hand of the King. He is head of the government, head of the royal family and custodian of the holy mosque in Mecca and Medina. They have a civil justice system and a sharia justice system. These to justice system are separated. The Council of senior scholars of 21, appointed by the king is the highest religious body and are responsible for keeping the sharia laws in tact. They have no parliament and all decisions are made by the king at his royal family, who are also the government.
: The system is a parliamentary democracy more or less like the British United Kingdom system with a constitution. They have a central government that has authority over the 29 union states and 7 union territories. On paper this is the most democratic system, but in reality it is a very divided union. It is divided by language / ethnicity, by territory, by religious groups, by cast and many more. They have unwritten religious laws and tradition that divide the people. By this unwritten tradition the ultimate power in the country is in the hand of the majority Hindu group and by their highest cast, where all the capital is accumulated. All the lower cast and all the other religious groups has no say in the power sharing. In my personal opinion India has forgotten the teaching and spirit of Mahatma Gandhi.
Nobody must criticized their system, since it is adjusted to their traditions and culture. These countries are internally peaceful countries.
