I don't think so. Can you give an example. Usually "the government" refers to the government of the country you're talking about. Similarly, "the school" is either your school, or the school you're talking about.

Either. I'd use the first one because "effectively" can also means "actively but not explicitly". "During the Edo period the Emperor was effectively a figurehead." But that's just the way I talk.
