A government -- good or bad -- can be called legitimate if it keeps what is called a monopoly on the use of force. This means that the government is the only entity that can force people to act in a certain way, typically by establishing laws and enforcing them with the police or military. If the people living under this government accept the rules, even begrudgingly, then the government is legitimate.
An illegitimate government is one where this monopoly on force is challenged, or absent. The failed Russian Coup of 1991, and the more recent failed coup in Venezuela, are a good examples of how those who claimed to be in power didn't establish a monopoly on force, as the police, military, and citizens beneath them refused to honor their authority.

Democracy produces an accountable, responsive, and legitimate government by holding elected officials accountable to the people through regular elections, transparency in decision-making processes, and mechanisms for oversight such as a free press and independent judiciary. This allows for government responsiveness to the needs and interests of the citizens, as officials seek to maintain public support and legitimacy by addressing issues important to the population.
