Notice how these are election buttons - that means people are allowed input into who gets elected into power Which type of government best emphasizes this idea?

KingPizza:

well not a dictatorship and I don't think this would fit democracy, so I'm thinking republic?

Vocaloid:

hm, not quite - *democracy* is the government that emphasizes rule from the people. in a *true* democracy, people directly elect their leaders, while in a *republic* people elect representatives to make decisions on their behalf. the U.S. is technically both ("democratic republic")

KingPizza:

okay, I think I have my answer now which is democracy, I was also looking at oligarchy

Vocaloid:

yup good

Vocaloid:

Typically, oligarchies are run by a small chosen group, and they gain new leadership from within their circle, so it wouldn't fit here either.
