Detailed Solution

The Community government in Belgium has powers regarding cultural, educational and language-related issues. Therefore, its role is to administer these issues for its linguistic community. In contemporary democracies, community governance represents a power-sharing system. European countries with several ethnic communities, like Belgium, provide examples of such a form of government. In this system of government, several social groups share authority. The Belgian people choose the community government in Belgium. No matter where they reside in the country, members of one linguistic group—the Dutch, French, or German-speaking- elect their own "community governments''. The community government has the authority on issues of culture, education, and language of that linguistic group. Other social groupings, such as linguistic and religious ones, may also share power. This approach is used to distribute power fairly across minority communities.
