Governments based on rule by one person are called autocracies or monarchies. Rule by a few individuals is called an oligarchy, while rule by many people is called a democracy. These typologies reflect the distribution of power and decision-making authority within a political system.
The term for this type of government is known as a decentralized government system. In this system, regional and provincial governments hold significant power and autonomy, while the central government has limited authority. Such a system allows for greater local governance and decision-making.
It is called the power of recognition, recognizing the new government as the legal government of the country in question. Washington was the first to used this power when he recognized the French Republic after the French Revolution.
The concept that holds the government and its officers accountable is known as "checks and balances." This system ensures that no branch of government has unchecked power by allowing each branch to monitor and limit the actions of the other branches. Additionally, mechanisms such as separation of powers, oversight committees, and the rule of law help ensure accountability in government.

if you think that Sparta is an oligarchy, you are wrong. Sparta is unable to have an oligarchy because they have two kings that have no power to the people. kind of like Great Britain. The only difference is that Great Britain has a constitution and Sparta doesn't. An example of an oligarchy is not known at this time. Sparta is also not a monarchy because it has TWO kings instead of one. if i could make up a word for Spartas government... it would be POLARCHY because Sparta has more than one king. when i find out the answer, i will update this answer.
