Thank you for clearing that up. It's rather like the
Democratic Republic of the Congo; yes, they have a government:
Quote:

CIA reports • cabinet: Ministers of State appointed by the president

..and the president, ensconced since 2001, is supposed to be elected but elections are overdue:
Quote:
|
election.….originally scheduled for 27 November 2016 but expected by end of 2017
|
Quote:
|
prime minister appointed by the president.….note - election marred by serious voting irregularities
|
So, no election yet, governed by an appointed cabinet otherwise known as the president's mates, millions of internally displaced persons desperate to get rid of the government with intensified fighting following last year's non-election, unsupervised banks to keep your money safe for the laundering racket (but not for you) and it's
Democratic right? It says so right there in the name!
Am I getting the correct picture here?
