The political system is the set of rules applied by the government while it is controlling the state

Chapter 12 — The government • 12.01 — The political system • Paragraph 1 • §12.01.01.00

The political system is the set of rules applied by the government while it is controlling the state. It is the government’s rules of processing specifically for the state, that is, the way in which the government exercises its control over the state. Because the question of how a Being exercises control over a dataset (regardless of whether in a haphazard or a rules-based way) is beyond the scope of this analysis, here only the fact is noted that rules on how governments control the state do exist. (This does not mean that the rules preceded the actual exercise of control, i.e. chieftains and kings (and, presumably, democracies) existed long before Plato categorised them.)
