The act of governing

A machine sent back in time to terminate Gray Davis and become GOVERNER of CALEEFORNIA. Urban Dictionary

That guy in the group who skips the plan in the last minute Urban Dictionary

Half governor, half cyborg... a hyper-alloy combat chasis surrounded by living tissue, sent back by Skynet to become the governor of California. Urban Dictionary

The government is you and me and you've all been trained to forget that by the ones pretending to be our masters! turn off the television! it's only there to distract you and to make your mind up for you! They've been telling us how it's going to be... wait a second! were supposed to be doing that! Urban Dictionary

Something which always has too many flaws and is never perfect Urban Dictionary

A person's legal name, as opposed to an A.K.A. or nickname, the avoidance of which is usually preferred by those involved in illegal business. Urban Dictionary

A system that contains people that controls a state, a city or a country. However, governments can easily become corrupt since most of the people in office are control freaks and work long and hard to take away the rights and freedoms of the people that they supposedly serve. They normally give out the excuse that they are protecting the public when in reality they are all psychopaths, liars and control freaks. They take away freedoms on a yearly and sometimes monthly basis when they could be doing things such as solving problems such as murders, kidnappings, and homelessness. Ironically, humans are not the only ones with governments, animals also have governments as well and the animals run their governments a lot more efficiently than any human can run theirs. For example, ants make sure that every member of their colony is fed and this includes their larvae or babies. Wasps do the same and bees also. This means that despite humans claiming that they're the smartest animals around, they are so idiotic that they are unable to run a system correctly. Urban Dictionary

The government is an entity inside a nation (or in the case of federations, a lesser being) that is tasked for running said entity. In forms such as democracy, the government is chosen by the people, while other forms can hold more tyrannical leanings, in which a small amount of the population runs the nation. Urban Dictionary

A large organization which rules over a country. Usually paractices extortion and other such forms of opression. Urban Dictionary
