Galactic Senate
In Star Wars: The central government before the Empire rises.
Comprised of representatives of the various worlds making up the Galactic Republic, the senate was designed as a democratic ruling body to make decisions affecting trade routes and such.
This would work well if it wasn’t stuffed with gormless loons who let Palpatine trick them, slaughter the Jedi and essentially seize control of the galaxy.
In Real Life: Sick of MP scandals and inadequate government, the UK chooses a brand new form of government based entirely on the Wars system.
Plus the Houses of Parliament are torn down to make way for a massive chamber, which can also hold sporting events to raise funds for government programs.
This would’ve worked well if the BNP hadn’t seized power, slaughtered half the police force and installed a drooling fascist loony as Supreme Chancellor.
