The five concepts of democracy are outlined below.
1. Worth of the Individual: Democracy serves many of the different and distinct individuals that reside in the governed land.
2. Equality of All Persons: In democracy all are equal meaning that it does not matter what race, gender, color, religion, etc., an individual is. Each individual is entitled to equal opportunity and equality before law.
