so just for explanation on how the user came to this conclusion: in a direct democracy, the people are directly voting on issues. there are no decisions made by representatives--it comes directly from the people. In a representative democracy, the citizens will vote for representatives who will then act on the issues. The representative(s) are the voice of the people. So they got the direct part because citizens are able to directly vote on the laws (in the question) and representative because it says "Citizens elect representatives to sit in two different lawmaking assemblies."

Answer 4

Thank you.
I just remember this because Switzerland has this type of government.

Yes, it does.Just be sure to explain your answer next time so it's not considered a direct answer and so the user will also understand how you came to that conclusion!
