This term we have been learning about Parliament. We have looked at the difference between government and parliament, NZ parliament, who is in government, how our government works and we compared democracy to dictatorship.

• That the prime minister sits in the 4th seat on the right.
• You get given a seat on how many votes you get in the elections.
• National sits on the right side

Here is the link to my compare and contrast map explaining the difference between democracy and dictatorship.
