⚠️ The trap
Governo is the noun (government), not the verb. 'To govern' = 'governare'. Don't confuse the noun and verb forms: 'Il governo governa' = 'The government governs'.
To say "to rule or control a country" in Italian:
governare (for to govern); governo for the government
"governo" in English means:
government
