Answer 1:
De facto is latin for in fact and in political terms indicates a government that may have ceased power unlawfully. They may not be constitutionally in power, but are in reality. De jure is the opposite.
Answer 2:
De facto is a government supported by the people of the state and not by a constitution. De jure on the other hand is a government supported by a present constitution. For example: Corry Aquino's government.
Answer 3:
A de jure government is officially recognized by the constitution and other (neighboring) states, and sometimes even supranational and inter-governmental institutions. De facto governments are not recognized. De facto governments are caused by for example a revolution within (i.e. revolutions caused by the people of the State).

Can you give me a modern example of 'de facto' government?
The Latin phrase 'de facto' means 'in or according to fact'. The phrase 'de jure' means 'in or according to law'. In terms of government, a 'de jure' government describes a government that's recognized by and in accord with legal standards and systems. A 'de facto' government describes the government that actually is operating and being respected as the ruling body. Ideally, the two phrases describe the same government in the same area. For example, the Taliban became the 'de facto' and the 'de jure' government in much of Afghanistan for the time period 1996-2001. Prior to and since those years, the Taliban has been the 'de facto' but not the 'de jure' government in areas where its supporters, representatives and organizers hold power.
