I say we stick to the more sensible governments that actually have been. Instead of the governments that could be. No Technocracy or anything like that.
Paganism - Anarchy
Protestantism - Corporatism
Reformed - *Capitalism
CRC Catholicism - Marxism
Catholicism - Socialism
Orthodox - *Theocracy
Hinduism - Monarchy
Confucianism - Fascism
Buddhism - Direct Democracy
Sunni Islam - Christian Fundimentalism
Shiite Islam - Islamic Fundimentalism
BTW about direct democracy, democracy is NOT a form of government. What should we rename it?
EDIT: Switched the *'s

I don't mean to sound biased (although I do appear to, and I realize that), but the U.S. is the last Christian Fundamentalist state on earth, and even then it's not much of one.
How about we get rid of Theocracy, replace it with something (I don't know what), and have Secular and Spiritual Islam taking up the two moslem slots?
It will give birger jarl more work though :\

But if we are talking about 200 years from now, then anything is possible.
We could have these government be unactivated until a certain point. For example, we could perhaps somehow use the reformation to allow Technocracy to be activated. Or at least through events...
Democracy is a method of choosing leaders.
As for representative democracy, that would effectively describe the Soviet electoral system.
TOO MUCH POSTING TOO FAST, if you can meet me in #europauniversalis on irc.barrysworld.com

*Ahem*
What about my government choices?
There is no point in including secular Islam as a government. If it is secular, then it isn't Islam at all anyway...
Turkey for example is secular... it is just a republic/democracy. It is in no way Islamic, except that most of the country's citizens are. The government is secular.
This would be as stupid as including secular christianity as a government type. You could argue the entire western world is secular christian, and have no need for republic or the other government types.
Isn't there a way to just "cancel out" some religions/governments since Technocracy to me is a crappy government Activision made up for Call To Power 2 to give it a scientific "edge."
How about an A.I. government type.
What I mean is, there is an extremely powerful computer which handles the government, and tries it's best to work in the public's best interest. But we could have some events where the computer gains it's own willpower, and begins to enslave the human race!

Activision did not invent technocracy. Look it up.
Direct popular rule requires people to vote on every bill and every court case, which takes too long.
No.
Please meet on that IRC channel, please!
I'm sorry, but I don't have an IRC client. That's alright, I don't expect my "crazy" ideas to make it into this scenario anyway... oh well.
