Diffrence Between State and Government

A government is an organization that creates, defines, and enforces laws within a state, which is a sovereign geographic entity. Governments possess legislative, executive, and judicial powers, while states require people, land, sovereignty, and governance to be recognized. Although governments can change based on the will of the people, states remain constant regardless of who governs them.

State and Government

A government is an organization or institution that creates and


executes laws and policies in a society. It is given the power to
administer over a particular area and its inhabitants. This power
includes:
1. Legislative or the power to create laws and policies.
2. Executive or the power to enforce the law.
3. Judicial or the power to define the law.
There are several types of government; Anarchist, Communist,
Monarchy, Oligarchy, Theocracy, Constitutional Monarchy,
Constitutional Republic, Dictatorship, and Democracy. Each of
these types has a distinct way of creating, defining, and enforcing
the law.
A government is the political administration of a country or state.
A state is the geographic entity that has a distinct fiscal
system, constitution, and is sovereign and independent from
other states as recognized by them. It is where a government can
exercise its powers.
A state can be any of these types: Member State, Federated
State, Nation State, or Sovereign State. It has to be recognized by
other sovereign states in order to be able to join into international
agreements with other states.
The basic characteristics of a state are:
It has people no matter how many or how diverse they are from
each other.
It has land no matter the size, but it should be enough to
accommodate its inhabitants.
It has sovereignty enabling it to independently carry out its
policies.
It has a government to manage and allow the state to establish its
sovereignty.
A government cannot exist without a state, and a state cannot
run without a government. Although the government controls the
state, governments change according to the will of the people
while the state remains as it is no matter who runs it.
A state is like a ship, and a government is like the crew who runs
the ship. Conversely, one might compare them to
a business organization wherein the state is the business entity
while the government is the management team of the business.
Summary:
1.A state is a geographic entity that enjoys sovereignty while a
government is an organization that creates, defines, and enforces
the laws of the state.
2.A government is given legislative, executive, and judicial
powers to administer the state while the state must have people,
land, sovereignty, and government in order to be recognized.
3.Both have different types, but while a state exists on its own
and remains as it is no matter who runs it, governments can be
replaced according to the people’s will.
4.A state is the territory while a government is the entity that
administers or manages the territory.
