* Socialist - Everyone shares equally
* Democracy - Everyone gets an equal voice in the running of the country
* Monarchy - The Monarch makes the rules, usually with the assistance of a group
* Dictatorship - Their rule is law and nothing else matters.
Actually, the above are divisions of labor inside a government. If the original question is more about which different types of government there are, we've really come up with only about four different categories of government. Here they are, from oldest to newest:
The first form is often known as Communal government, and is generally considered to be what humankind first developed. It is common in those cultures not yet evolved above the tribal government state (which was the first government, before chiefdoms, kingdoms, and nation-states). It is best known as being the form used by Ancient Athens (though, frankly, #3 fits Athens far better).
The second form is what immediately superseded communal government, and one which humanity seems most comfortable with: the strong central absolute leader. The Monarch and Dictator are the best and most prevalent examples.
The third form is a result of the rise of the elites. Much of what is historically named a Monarchy or Kingdom didn't have an absolute ruler - rather, there were a significant political class which governed, occasionally picking a leader from their ranks, but power tended to rest in that political class. The great Aristocracies of Europe are a prime example of that political class, though civilizations back at least to the Sumerians had them, too (and the millenia-long Chinese beauracracy is another excellent example of a ruling political class).
Finally, the latest form of a generally widespread citizenry using representatives is fairly new, though not entirely. The modern representative democracy is the major example, though the Roman Republic could also be a early possible development.
It also occurs to me that this question might be directed at the types of relationships that governments have within themselves, in regards to division of power and sovereignty.
In that regard, there are three ways to divide power:
Approximately two thirds of all current nations use the first system, one third use the second system, and but a handful use the last.
As a side note: the EU is a Confederation aspiring to be a Federation.

The Federal System lies between the unitary and confederal systems of government.
The basic building blocks of government are a legislature, a person in charge, the court system and the bureaucracy. Each larger government is broken down into smaller, sub-national governments.
