History Homework

I think our power structure is not fundamentally different from medieval society. It still has a shape of triangle. And on the top of the triangle, the people possess the largest power in the society of Hong Kong. On the contrary, at the bottom of the triangle, the people have the most the smallest authority in the society classes. And it's similar to the medieval society because the people who are distributed to the bottom of the classes, they all have chance to upgrade their classes and have more power.

On the top of our Hong Kong power structure, there is the chief executive Donald Tsang. The second class includes Secretary for justice, Chief Secretary for Administration and Financial secretary. Under the second class, there are 12 policy bureaus secretaries. And on the fourth class, there are 61 departments and agencies. At the bottom of the society, it includes lots of commoners.

But the differences between nowadays power structure and the medieval society is, there is a huger triangle on our Hong Kong society, and it is very unusual characteristic in Hong Kong. And also, in the medieval society, people need to kill the emperor and they even don't need to have any ability! But in nowadays Hong Kong, the person on the top need to have capability.
