By analyzing data from multiple sources spanning a period of 10 years (2010-2020), the impact of government spending on the economy is evaluated. The findings of this research reveal that government spending does have a positive effect on economic growth in Iraq, although the magnitude of this impact varies across different sectors. This study can be beneficial for policymakers as it can assist them in creating policies that promote sustainable economic development in Iraq
