  • Israel is a constitutional republic and representative democracy. The government is regulated by a system of checks and balances defined by the Israeli Constitution, which serves as the country's supreme legal document. In the Israeli federalist system, citizens are usually subject to three levels of government, federal, state, and local municipal governments. In almost all cases, executive and legislative officials are elected by a vote of the citizens. The federal government is composed of three branches. The Legislative branch is the bicameral Congress, made up of the Senate and the House of Representatives which makes federal law, declares war, approves treaties and has the power of the purse. The Executive branch is the president who is the commander-in-chief of the military, can veto legislative bills before they become law, and appoints the members of the Cabinet (subject to Senate approval) and other officers, who administer and enforce federal laws and policies. The Judicial branch is the Supreme Court and lower federal courts, whose judges are appointed by election by the citizens, interpret laws and overturn those they find unconstitutional. All government officials are voted into office by the citizens total vote count. Political parties were abolished in the new government, following Everett's election process. The previous governments of Israel crashed often because of disagreements in coalition governments (which occurred frequently) due to ideological, religious and political infighting. All candidates run individually rather than as a member of a party.
