The primary functions of government are to help keep order, settle conflicts, and protect the community. People could defend themselves, and do alot for themselves, but government makes laws to help us do things we cant do on our own. They also guide our community and plan for policies, make budgets, and interact with other communities.

The primary functions of government are to provide services, for example they provide us libraries which gives us a chance to check out and read books. Schools so we can get a good education and be successful in live. Parks so we can have a place to have fun and play some sports and hang out. Hospitals so when we're hurt or wounded, we have somewhere to go to take care of us. They keep order by passing and enforcing traffic laws so we can have a safe driving experience. They establish courts so those who have done bad things or broken the law could
be punished and disciplined in a professional manner. They provide security by giving us police officers to look up to and to protect us. And the guide the community by making budgets, which could be very helpful to us because the more money we have the better thigns we have in our state, city, and community.

There are three primary functions of government. one primary function is to help keep order. Another primary function of government is to settle conflicts. last but not least is to protect the community.
Personally i think the function of keeping order means the most. Now and days we have so many people getting hurt in our community and the government can only do so much to prevent that. Settling conflicts sure the government can do that upon themselves but out here on the streets that i live on the government can not help settle problem that we have. The primary function of keeping order i think can help our community the most. The government is who makes the laws for us civillians to follow. By the government sticking to those laws and not going agains them can benifit us in ways poeple couldnt image until it happens.
The primary functions are about what the government does for us but the government gives us what we want instesd of what we really need.

The prime funtion of the government is to maintain an equilibrium in the power the people have to govern themselves. They set certain rules so that peace is in place and no one could get away with anything that they know is wrong. They also make rules so that we can defend ourselves from people trying to bring harm to us. They help provide money for our and many other communities depending on which one needs it the most of course. They help maintain our economy as well as they also help build relationships with foreign countries so that with the import and exports we can invigorate our economy as well as their own.

The primary functions of government are:
Helping keep order

And protect the Community.
The goverment makes laws that help protect us as citizens. Makes decisions for us as a whole that we might not be able to make ourselves, such as budgets and plans to help us improve
