dominance

The sentence is not understandable, lykers. Could you explain more about what you intend?

I'm trying to convey the meaning: the management and regulation for a country is done by its government.

lykersthe management and regulation for a country is done by its government.

But this is a truism, lykers. It is not worth being stated; it is the definition of 'government'.

Yes, I just want to make sure I'm using the word "dominance" appropriately.

Then no, you are not. I cannot even figure out how the word might be worked properly into either your original sentence or your idea. Governments do not 'dominate' their own countries.

Why not google the word 'dominance' and take a look at a lot of the sentences there that use the word?

I just looked up the dictionary again, and saw the first definition to the word "dominate" on the reference dot com is,

to rule over; govern; http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/control.

Of course a 'government' 'governs'—that's what I told you at first. You composed a truism, a useless statement. You did not use the word correctly; you have created an unnatural sentence, and you have not followed my suggestion.

OK, I'd avert composing a truism.

To dominate implies a sense of force or aggression. Like walking in and taking over. One country could exert dominance over another country if it was in a position of power over that country.

You are basically trying to say "It is the job of a country's government to govern their country." This is an obvious statement. My suggestion is to be specific about what the government does,

This is a brilliant explanation that I can learn from your language experience rather than from dictionary. Thanks a million.
