Aristotle categorizes governments into three main forms: Monarchy (rule by one), Aristocracy (rule by few), and Polity (rule by many). Each has a deviant counterpart: Tyranny, Oligarchy, and Democracy, respectively.
Key Lesson: The stability and morality of a government depend on how well it balances the interests of all classes.
