Democratic governments get their power from the people who vote them in. Legitimacy is conferred upon them only by those they govern and it can be taken away by those same people.

Oh yes, non-democratic governments are even more prone to corruption than democratic governments are.
After World War II, anti-democratic governments rose to power in numerous nations in Europe and in Asia for a variety of reasons. In part, these governments gained power due to support from the anti-democratic governments of the Soviet Union and China. In addition, many of these governments gained power due to the fact that stressful post-war conditions could be dealt with more efficiently by autocratic (non-democratic) governing powers than by democratic governing bodies.
In a democratic government, the people participate equally instead of power being concentrated in a minority, such as in monarchy and oligarchy. Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Denmark, New Zealand, Australia and Switzerland are examples of countries with democratic governments.
