The government system in Peru is divided in 3 branches. The Executive branch (Which is the President and his ministers), the Legislative branch (the Congress) and the Judicial branch (the judges).
The president and the congress are elected on the same time every 5 years. Peru is one of the few countries in the world where all the adults have to vote.
The president can be re-elected once but those those two administrations can't be consecutive.
Peru is a democratic republic as most of the countries in South America.

This is definitely a political year in Peru as they have 2 elections, the first one was to choose a new President which Alan Garcia Perez was elected to govern the country for a second period, and the second one will be taken place in 3 weeks, and majors and local authorities will be chosen for the next 4 years. In Peru there are 3 separated power areas, Executive (President and his Ministers), Legislative (Congress), and Law (Legal System). If you want to know more information about it, you can visit peruvian sites such as Prime Minister site pcm.gob.pe and Congress site congreso.gob.pe

The elections in Peru are every 5 years.
The actual president is Alan Garcia. It's his second time as President. He was President before Alberto Fujimori -now encarcelated in Chile-.
Peru is a Democratic Republic. And it has 3 branches.
Executive--> President
Legislative--> Congress
Judicial ---> Judges
All of them are independent.

Since I'm Ecuadorian, I'll try my best: Elections took place like 2-3 months ago, Former President Allan García was re-elected after 17 years. A very controversial election according to many, since he had to face many law suits during and after his presidential period. As you may guess, Perú has a democratic system, and Voting is an obligation for the people of Perú.

I hope this helps you, but If I were you, I would go to a Peruvian site and seek info under "Peruvian history" or "Peruvian government".
