The governing of a country is made possible by the systems of government. The systems and mechanisms within a government system constitute what we call as intergovernmental relations.The adjustment of intergovernmental relations can help government system to become more comprehensive and sensible, and governmental institutions more adaptable and effective. Intergovernmental relations are the relations of responsibilities, guiding and regulating the behavior of governments.
