to the Union of the Comoros was approved by the Country’s
people and adopted in December 2001. A year later (May 2002), Presidential
elections were held and won by Ahmed Abdallah Mohamed Sambi. Legislative

with political parties including;

Federal System:
Each of the Comoros islands; Nzwani, Moheli and Grande Comore
are headed by its own elected President. This is in accordance
with changes to the new constitution of the Country adopted in
2001 which allowed for a federal-style government. An elected
union President is in charge of the country as a whole.
