Belize has parliamentary democratic form of government, and a constitutional monarchy.
The structure of government is based on the British parliamentary system, and the legal system is modeled on the common law of England. The current head of state is Queen of England who, as Queen of Belize, is represented in the country by the Governor-General. However, the cabinet, led by a Prime Minister, who is head of Government, acting as advisors to the governor general, in practice exercise executive authority. Cabinet ministers are members of the majority political party in parliament and usually hold elected seats within it concurrent with their cabinet positions.
