Describe the structure of Afghanistan's government.

The Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan has 34 provinces. For a five-year term, the president is elected by majority popular vote. A candidate must earn more than fifty percent of the vote to be elected outright. There is a run-off election for the top two vote getters if no one earns more than fifty percent. A president can, if reelected, serve a second five-year term. Two branches belong to the National Assembly. There are 102 seats in the Meshrano Jirga, or House of Elders. Its members are elected by different means for three-, four-, or five-year terms. There are 249 seats in the Wolesi Jirga, or House of People. Its members are elected to serve five-year terms directly. There are nine judges on the Stera Mahkama, or Supreme Court. The president appoints them and the Wolesi Jirga approves them. Ten-year terms are held by the judges. A second term can't serve them. Main courts, appeals courts, and special courts also belong to the judicial branch. As of 2016, there were fifty-seven political parties in Afghanistan.  

Hopefully, this helps! :D
