Six differences are 1. Dictatorship is the concentration of the power of a country or community to a single individual whereas democracy is the power division among people of a country. 2.

In dictatorship, people's opinions are not heard nor done.....but democracy does that all. 4.Dictatorship can suppress any upheavals against them.......but not in a democracy. 5.Dictatorship can often lead to unstable government and economy but surely not democracy. 6.
