Explanation:

• 32: Canada has a parliamentary regime where the Queen (represented by the Governor - General) and the prime minister are key figures. In a parliamentary system, the executive is drawn from the legislature.
• 33: The Electoral College means U.S. citizens do not directly vote for president. They vote for electors who then vote for the president.
• 34: Parliamentary regimes can form coalition governments when no single party has a majority. This is a common practice in such systems.
• 35: A no - confidence vote in a parliamentary system typically leads to new elections or the formation of a new government.
• 36: The assassination of President James Garfield in 1881, which was related to the spoils system, led to the creation of the U.S. civil service system (Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act).
• 37: North Korea is often considered an example of "rule over law" where the state's will (as represented by the leadership) is above the law.
• 38: "The judiciary" does refer to both the branch of government and the people (judges, lawyers etc.) in the judicial system.
• 39: In a judicial sense, "standing" means that directly affected parties may bring a complaint before court.
• 40: Eisenhower using the National Guard to enforce Brown v. Board is an example of judicial implementation (enforcing a court - ordered desegregation). The Youngstown ruling is about executive power, and Bush v. Gore is about election law.
• 41: Louisiana is based on civil law (due to its French and Spanish heritage), while most U.S. states are based on common law.
