<|im_start|>assistant
The Federal Republic of Germany is a federal state and is organized as a parliamentary democracy. The Basic Law stipulates that all state power emanates from the people. The people delegate this power to the parliaments (Bundestag and Landtage) for the duration of an election period.

State power is divided between the legislative branch, the executive branch and the power responsible for the administration of justice. This division of powers is an integral part of every democracy and in Germany it is enshrined in the Basic Law, the constitution. The legislative branch includes parliaments, the executive branch the chancellor and the ministers. The judiciary plays a central role because judges in the state and federal courts are independent and rule solely on the basis of the law. The highest German court is the Federal Constitutional Court , which monitors compliance with the Basic Law. All other state organs are bound by the case law of the 16 constitutional judges.<|im_end|>
