                                             Introduction to State Institutions

                       State institutions are essential components of any functioning government. They are
               responsible for ensuring that the laws and regulations of the state are upheld and enforced.
               These institutions are critical in maintaining order, protecting citizens' rights, and promoting
               society's welfare.
                       State institution refers to any organization or entity established by the government to
               carry out specific functions. State institutions play a vital role in maintaining the functioning
               of the government. They enforce laws and regulations, protect citizens' rights, and promote
               society's welfare. These institutions can be categorized into different branches of government,
               such as the judiciary, legislature, and executive. Each branch of government has its own set of
               institutions that work together to ensure that the government functions effectively.

               Exercise 7. Translate the text below into English

                       Pemerintah  Amerika  Serikat  terdiri  dari  tiga  cabang:  cabang  legislatif,  cabang
               eksekutif dan cabang yudikatif. Cabang legislatif, yang disebut Kongres, bertanggung jawab

               untuk  membuat  undang-undang.  Kongres  terdiri  dari  dua  majelis:  Senat  dan  Dewan
               Perwakilan Rakyat. Dalam esai ini, Anda akan mempelajari perbedaan dan persamaan antara
               kedua  majelis  Kongres  ini.  Ada  banyak  perbedaan antara  Senat  dan  DPR.  Wakil  Presiden
               Amerika Serikat adalah ketua Senat. Dia harus  memberikan suara di Senat  jika  hasil  suara
               seri.  Di  sisi  lain,  pemimpin  DPR  disebut  Ketua  DPR.  Para  wakil  memilih  ketua  DPR.
               Perbedaan  lainnya  adalah  Senat  terdiri  dari  100  senator,  dua  dari  setiap  negara  bagian
               sedangkan  DPR  terdiri  dari 435  perwakilan.  Jumlah  perwakilan  dari  setiap  negara  bagian
               ditentukan  oleh  populasi  negara  bagian  tersebut.  Semakin  besar  populasi  di  suatu  negara
               bagian,  semakin  banyak  perwakilan  negara  bagian  itu  di  DPR.  Perbedaan  ketiga  adalah
