Israel is a parliamentary democracy in which citizens vote for political parties to represent them in the Knesset (parliament). The president, who is elected by the Knesset in a separate process, selects a prime minister from party leaders, who is then confirmed by a majority in the legislature after forming a coalition with other parties.
