The Philippines was traditionally a presidential unitary form of government. However, after the installation of a monarchy, the country is now following a constitutional monarchy and presidential unicameral form of government. The King or Queen only serves as symbolic position and does not have any political powers; while the President functions as head of the Government and as the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of the Philippines. However, throughout the ages, several changes of governing have occurred and this country has had Socialism and Communism as their leading movements. The leader of any kind of political environment is elected by general voting process and the leaders age granted monthly terms, during which time he/she appoints and presides over the Cabinet (a non elected government). The current government structure can be seen in the Government Structure section.
