Satire is the use of humor or irony in one's figure of speech in order to criticize the characteristics or to ridicule or expose a person's actions especially in political scenes. Mark Twain, in his "The The £1,000,000 Bank-Note" tells of an occurrence-

Now, something had been happening there a little before, which I did not know anything about until a good many days afterwards, but I will tell you about it now. Those two old brothers had been having a pretty hot argument a couple of days before, and had ended by agreeing to decide it by a bet, which is the English way of settling everything.
