How and Why Political Systems Change
             Since the creation of mankind the world has been continually
             changing. With each day, man develops, countries grow and
             political systems change. A political system is an important set
             of social institutions. Political systems have many functions.
             Political systems create resources for education, health,
             welfare, industry and foreign policy. Political systems have
             changed drastically over centuries and are still changing
