Simplified Meaning:
People in a country are the ones who decide how the government should run things. If everyone agrees on certain rules and actions, then the government can make those happen. For example, if many citizens want better schools, they show their support, and the government will work on improving the education system. It’s like when a group of friends decides which game to play; they all have a say, and the chosen game is something they all agree to play. In the same way, a government needs the people's agreement to make big decisions. This means if citizens stay involved and share their opinions, they help shape how the country is managed.
