It is very important and essential for every country to make rule of law, development, stability, peace and tranquility of the country. Legislation is made by the legislature which may be formed according to the Constitution of the state. Some parliaments are two houses, bicameral legislatures and some are single house, unicameral legislatures. The outcomes of good laws are important, but more importantly the enforcement and implementation of these laws are able to reach its goal and purpose. Therefore, pre-legislative scrutiny and post-legislative scrutiny are also important. Moreover, the type of government is also important in the legislative process. The legislatures and legislative processes of the United Kingdom, the United States of America, Japan and Myanmar are comparatively analyzed in this paper.
