Presidential system
World's states colored by form of government:
- Full presidential republics
A presidential system, or single executive system, is a form of government in which a head of government, with the title of president, is in charge of an executive branch that is separate from the legislative branch in systems that use separation of powers. This head of government is in most cases also the head of state.
The first true presidential system was created during the United States Constitutional Convention in 1787.[1]
